Trélissac-Antonne 0-1 Genets Anglet saw the visitors claim a narrow away victory in the French Championnat National 2 on October 18, 2026. A single second-half goal settled a tight contest at the Stade Firmin Daudou, with Genets Anglet’s organization and patience proving enough to take all three points.

Match overview

The first half was a cagey affair, with both teams prioritizing defensive solidity. Trélissac-Antonne tried to build through midfield but struggled to break down a well-drilled Genets Anglet back line. The visitors, meanwhile, looked dangerous on set pieces and forced a few half-chances without truly testing the goalkeeper.

The decisive moment arrived in the 67th minute when Mathieu Darribère found space inside the penalty area and finished with composure. Trélissac pushed for an equalizer in the final 20 minutes, but Genets Anglet defended their lead with maturity and limited the home side to efforts from distance.

Key moments

• 29’ – Trélissac pressure: A header from a corner sailed just over the crossbar as the home side began to threaten.
• 52’ – Genets warning: Darribère worked space on the edge of the box but saw his shot blocked by a last-ditch challenge.
• 67’ – Genets 1-0: Darribère latched onto a clever pass and slotted the ball past the goalkeeper.
• 84’ – Late chance: Trélissac’s best opportunity of the second half was headed wide from close range.

Tactical story

Trélissac-Antonne wanted to play through the thirds and use their midfield to dictate the game, but Genets Anglet’s compact 4-4-2 shape made central progression difficult. The home side often resorted to longer passes, which played into the hands of the visiting defenders. Genets Anglet were also aggressive in the tackle, winning possession in key areas and launching quick transitions.

The goal came from exactly that kind of moment: a turnover in midfield followed by a direct pass into the forward. After taking the lead, Genets Anglet dropped deeper and invited pressure, but they remained disciplined and protected the central areas well. Trélissac’s late surge lacked the precision needed to find an equalizer.

Standout performers

Darribère was the match-winner for Genets Anglet, showing excellent movement and a calm finish. The visitors’ goalkeeper also deserved credit for a confident display, dealing with crosses and communicating well with his back line. For Trélissac, Thomas Lemaire made several important saves to keep the score at 1-0, while the home captain worked tirelessly in midfield.

What it means

The win gives Genets Anglet a valuable away result in the Championnat National 2 and reinforces their reputation as a difficult team to break down. Trélissac-Antonne will be frustrated not to have taken at least a point from a game in which they had more possession, but they lacked the cutting edge in the final third. In a competitive division, those small margins can shape the table quickly.
