Aboubacar is missing from Stade Poitevin's important away game against Saint-Malo

Stade Poitevin faces an exciting week as the team looks for success after a difficult period. The return of Ben Aboubacar to the starting line-up could have a decisive influence on the coming games. On October 18, during the game against Châteaubriant, Aboubacar was called up to the starting lineup for the first time this season by coach Luc Davaillon. Previously, he experienced two bitter defeats against Avranches and Girondins de Bordeaux, which significantly affected his position in the team.

Despite initially being demoted behind Alexandre Durimel and Florentin Pogba, Aboubacar was able to impress with his performance in Châteaubriant, where the team managed a 0-0 draw. However, this was only his first call-up to the starting line-up after several appearances as a substitute. In the following game in the Coupe de France against Limoges, Stade Poitevin made a strong comeback with a 4-2 win. Of course, the team is looking forward to being able to take this positive energy transition into the next round of the championship.

A look at the next challenges

The upcoming encounter against Saumur in the ninth round of the championship could be another chance for Aboubacar to show his skills. But there is a downer: Due to a third yellow card, he will not be able to play in the important away game against Saint-Malo on November 8th. This presents a new challenge for the team as they have been waiting for a win for five games and desperately need points.

Beyond the sporting events, we continue to monitor developments in the mobile phone provider sector in Germany, such as Ben's new “Sim Only” offer. Subscriptions start from just €7 per month, and customers have the freedom to customize their bundles on a monthly basis. This could be of interest to many Cologne consumers who are looking for flexible and attractive tariffs, including offers with 5G speeds of up to 400 Mbit/s.

Sport and society

In parallel to these local events, Eurostat reporting on sport in Europe is also of interest. Sport plays a key role in society and not only has an impact on physical health, but also promotes a sense of community and social cohesion. Current developments show that more and more emphasis is being placed on health and fitness in every area.

Next week we are excited to see how Stade Poitevin performs despite the challenges. Stay tuned for more updates regarding the game against Saumur and the team's next steps!
