Ten minutes later, on their first chance, the FCR struck. Karamoko was brought down in the box. Tchokount\u00e9 calmly converted the penalty (1-0, 12&#8242;). While Orl\u00e9ans had a chance to equalize through Berthier, whose shot from inside the box curved too far (22&#8242;), Sommer had two opportunities to double the lead. First, he tried to dribble past Faham in a one-on-one situation. The goalkeeper made the save (26&#8242;). Then, Karamoko drove the ball all the way up the Orl\u00e9ans half and set up our number 11 in the box. Faham deflected the shot with his foot (32&#8242;). Just before halftime, Maraval was once again decisive, stopping a powerful shot by Diakhaby (44&#8242;).<\/p>\n<p>After the break, Faham pulled out all the stops. Tchokount\u00e9 was denied by the goalkeeper in a one-on-one situation, and Faham immediately got back up to deflect Karamoko\u2019s follow-up shot (54&#8242;). The FCR had chances to take a two-goal lead but were punished by a penalty converted by Legendre to tie the game (1-1, 68&#8242;). But the Red Devils had what it took. Tchokount\u00e9 sent Traor\u00e9 on a run up the Orl\u00e9ans field before he found the top corner from a tight angle (1-2, 78&#8242;). Rouen then held firm to maintain the lead and could even have scored a third goal on counterattacks (80&#8242;, 96&#8242;). The main objective had been achieved. FCR notched its first win of the season.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Match Report<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Friday, August 14, 2025<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Stade de la Source<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>US Orl\u00e9ans &#8211; FC Rouen 1899:<\/strong> 1-2 (0-1)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Referee:<\/strong> Mr. Vincent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Goals for Rouen:<\/strong> Tchokount\u00e9 (13&#8242;, pen), Traor\u00e9 (78&#8242;); <strong>for Orl\u00e9ans:<\/strong> Legendre (68&#8242;, pen);<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yellow cards for Rouen:<\/strong> Gakpa (63&#8242;), Camara (74&#8242;); for Orl\u00e9ans: Guiheneuf (45&#8242;), Lemaitre (52&#8242;).<\/p>\n<p><strong>US Orl\u00e9ans:<\/strong> F-H Faham &#8211; M.
