Malgré la crise, l'Etoile n'a pas déclaré forfait

Non, pas question de s'enflammer ou de faire de jolis rêves pour la journée de tout à l'heure. Tout simplement parce que le programme nous propose un menu inodore et incolore. Pas un petit bout de piment dedans. Ou plutôt si, il y en a quand même un qu'il faut aller chercher à Ksour Essef où se disputera le match qui s'annonce le plus équilibré, donc le plus tentant pour ne pas… rester à la maison. D'abord, parce que là-bas, toute équipe visiteuse est interdite de victoire, à moins qu'il s'agisse des trois locomotives de la compétition. Sakiet Ezzit qui y atterrira cet après-midi le sait pertinemment. Et pour qu'ils ne laissent pas des plumes, les Sfaxiens devront jouer sur leur lancée du moment, tout en faisant attention aux peaux de banane adverses qui ont toujours jalonné le parquet de cette salle. Béni Khiar à l'épreuve De moindre intérêt sera le duel de Mahdia où les locaux, bien que revigorés par leur sursaut de samedi dernier, sont dans l'obligation de se méfier d'une formation de Béni Khiar qui s'accroche encore obstinément au rêve de la qualification au play-off. Sans attrait s'annoncent les autres rencontres. Une pensée cependant pour l'Etoile qui a finalement balayé le spectre du forfait, les joueurs et leur entraîneur ayant décidé de se présenter pour le match d'aujourd'hui malgré deux infructueux sit-in engendrés par la persistance de la crise financière (5 mois sans salaire). Et, c'est tout à leur honneur. Signalons qu'en match retard disputé jeudi, l'Espérance l'a emporté aisément sur l'ESRadès (32-22), ce qui permet aux «Sang et Or» de survoler le classement, avec trois points d'avance sur leur dauphin hammamétois.
