Amiens SC will finish their season with a trip to Brittany to face Rennes, who are already assured of promotion to the D3. The Rennes team will be above their partners Emma Bettens, whose goal will be to avoid losing face and limiting the damage. The difference between the two teams lies in the Rennes club's desire to 'build' a great women's team and the directors have not spared the means, especially financially. Rennes will play next season in D3. The start of a beautiful ascent and we would not be surprised if this team is at the top of French football in a few years. Despite the 6-0 loss last Sunday on the pitch of the Licorne B, some Amiénoises believed they could turn the tide this Sunday. It was the case of Loola Fermon, who in the first minutes had seen his shot hit the bar. Some regretted a lack of mental toughness in the team, which can explain why the Amiénoises quickly suffered at the hands of their opponents. It was the case especially of Loola Fermon and goalkeeper Justine Bray: 'Yes, we are disappointed because we did not work together. In Rennes, after this collective shipwreck, we will try to score at least one goal or two. There was frustration and even anger because what we did does not correspond to our values. It's a matter of mentality and we can't do worse than this Sunday. We need to wake up and bother them by putting our game in place. We need to go with a big mental.' For his part, Nicolas Cauvin, the coach of Amiens SC women's team, remains lucid before this second match: 'We did not take Rennes lightly. They are one step above us and have more maturity. It's true that giving the girls back their morale knowing they took a 6-0 will be complicated. But we will try to do something and I repeat, as soon as we are on the field, it's to give the best of ourselves. We will try to go looking for something and, on a match, you know, everything is possible. But we will need to put other ingredients.'
