There needs to be a reason : the Prime minister and then the instances of French football have been wrong. Be wrong to take too many precautions against the Covid-19. Wrong to have halted an exciting season of League 1. Wrongly condemned, unfairly, two clubs in League 2, one of whom had not won since November.

A rhythm crazy for two months, which promise to be extremely hot and dry – phew, there are two mini “breaks fresh” ! The month of August will be double or nothing for these teams : either they will arrive very form ready to fight ; or they will be out of breath. We rétorquera that there is now the opportunity to make five changes. Once again, the teams at the budget, the more important will be favored.
