In the tough this season, the women's MHSC may have definitively said goodbye to Europe, after an afternoon in hell with two expulsions and the defeat in stoppage time against Lille (1- 2). Marion Torrent, scorer before the break, scored in the second half…

Facing Lille, relegated and holder of only one success in this season of D1 Arkéma, the meeting at Grammont should have been a formality for the Pailladines.

However, lacking confidence this season, Yannick Chandioux's daughters struggled to find solutions in the northern defense. We had to wait for stoppage time in the first period, and an error by Lille goalkeeper Elisa Launay in her restart, to see captain Marion Torrent open the scoring, thanks to good pressing.

After Castro-Boilesen's equalizer (51st), a clash between Maelys Mpomé and Lille's Bamenga ignited the powder. Tempers heat up and Marion Torrent attacks the middle of LOSC. The historic captain of the MHSC is finally excluded by Ms. Rochebiliere (56th).

A defeat that hurts

The ex-international then attacks the referee of the match, pointing the finger at her several times. Her teammates have to intervene to prevent the situation from degenerating and the experienced number 4 (31 years old) ends up leaving the field, very angry.

To make matters worse for the Montpellier situation, Océane Deslandes, in the position of last defender, made a mistake and also received a red card (61st). At nine to finish the game, the Pailladines ended up losing in front of their 400 supporters, in added time (1-2, 90th+5).

With two days remaining, the MHSC is sixth, five points from fourth place, synonymous with qualification for the European Cup.
