Player ratings

Aeron Zinga scores twice — 8.32

Two goals and a mark of 8.32 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Squad

Words exchanged at Quevilly-Rouen

Issam El Maach 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

Still nobody has beaten Quevilly-Rouen

The unbeaten run reaches 6. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Squad

A row about effort at Quevilly-Rouen

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Cristián Cañozales was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout

Issam El Maach gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad

Jordan Leborgne makes it 200

200 times in these colours, in all weathers and under four or five different managers. That kind of service is quietly disappearing from the game.

Player ratings

The game went through Landry Nomel — 7.80

Marked 7.80 on 10 actions at both ends of the pitch. Midfielders like this get described as unspectacular by people who have never tried to play against one.

Match

Quevilly-Rouen rescue it on 89 minutes

Behind, and beaten by any honest reading, until minute 89. FC Fleury 91 had the points in their pocket and a corner of the ground still believed, which is generally when it happens.

Match

Quevilly-Rouen and FC Fleury 91 take a point apiece

It finished 2‑2, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

A falling-out at Quevilly-Rouen

Julien Kouadio and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad

Thomas Roux out for 27 days

The medical room confirms 27 days on the sidelines for Thomas Roux, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Squad

Francesco Renzetti signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Francesco Renzetti commits to Quevilly-Rouen for another 2 years.

Squad

Noah Vandenbossche 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

Aeron Zinga knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Quevilly-Rouen, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market

Francesco Renzetti brings the grey hairs Quevilly-Rouen lacked

At 38, he has seen every situation this season can produce, twice. The legs will be managed; the head is the purchase.

Market

Quevilly-Rouen bring in an old head

Clément Michel is 33 and has run out of things to prove. What he has left is where to stand, when to slow it down and what to say at half-time, and none of that is on a fitness chart.

Market

Babacar Diallo brings the grey hairs Quevilly-Rouen lacked

At 37, he has seen every situation this season can produce, twice. The legs will be managed; the head is the purchase.

Market

Quevilly-Rouen bring in an old head

Hendricks Cakin is 34 and has run out of things to prove. What he has left is where to stand, when to slow it down and what to say at half-time, and none of that is on a fitness chart.
