Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Ezechiel Doungous

20 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Stars Jeunes Talents lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad

24 days out for Abdramane Abba after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Stars Jeunes Talents will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Player ratings

Both of them Abdramane Youssouf's — 9.11

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 9.11, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Match

Stars Jeunes Talents cannot stop winning

5 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Brahim Ndoram

Successful dribbles: 23. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Words exchanged at Stars Jeunes Talents

Abdramane Abba and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Match

Abdramane Youssouf sends Stars Jeunes Talents past AS DGSSIE

It finished 2‑1, and it was Abdramane Youssouf’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Stars Jeunes Talents.

Squad

Idriss Hissein falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The dugout

The view from the dugout

“We controlled it. There were spells I did not like and we will look at them, but the group showed me something.” Abdoulaye Haroun, on a 2‑1 win that he was already picking apart on the walk to the press room.

In brief

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad

Abdramane Abba breaks a bone — 52 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 52 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Brahim Ndoram

Successful dribbles: 33. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Player ratings

A brace, and Ezechiel Doungous takes the afternoon — 8.76

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Ezechiel Doungous provided it, and the 8.76 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Boardroom

The Stars Jeunes Talents board want somebody sold

The instruction has come from upstairs rather than from the dugout, which is the version of this conversation no manager enjoys. Somebody in that squad is now available whether the man who picks the team thinks so or not.

The terraces

One of their own: Adam Hissein

He is 21 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

Match

Stars Jeunes Talents get the job done against CotonTchad

A 2‑0 win over CotonTchad, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Match

CotonTchad blown away early

There is a particular helplessness in conceding 2 times before the twentieth minute. CotonTchad tried to reorganise, Stars Jeunes Talents did not allow it, and the result was written long before it was confirmed.

Squad

Oumar Abba named in the team of the month

A month is long enough that nobody gets in by accident. Oumar Abba is in the division's best eleven for it, which is a quieter compliment than an award and a more reliable one.

The dugout

The view from the dugout

“We controlled it. There were spells I did not like and we will look at them, but the group showed me something.” Abdoulaye Haroun, on a 2‑0 win that he was already picking apart on the walk to the press room.
