Held in check at home by Dunkirk (0-0), Friday, for the 38th and final day of Ligue 2, SCO Angers still validated its return to Ligue 1, erasing the trauma of a nightmarish 2022/2023 season in the elite.

A promotion that turned the Raymond-Kopa stadium into gentle madness. A few moments after the whistle ended the match, the spectators invaded the pitch to celebrate this moment with the heroes of the day.

The players communicated at length with their public by gathering in front of the entrance to the tunnel leading to the locker room and singing, surrounded by a huge crowd: “We’re in Ligue 1! We’re in Ligue 1! “.

The party obviously continued in the streets of the city until very late at night. The club met its supporters on the Place du Ralliement. A call heard for thousands of Angevins who were able to make a triumph of the squad dressed for the occasion in t-shirts made for the occasion and on which one could read “Back in Ligue 1”.
