Losc began their preparation with a 3-1 victory on Wednesday at Domaine de Luchin, against Dunkirk (L2), rookie Tiago Santos delivering an assist on the first goal. From the 10th minute, the right side found on a center Amine Messoussa author of the opener. A first glimpse of what the young Portuguese (20 years old) can bring offensively.
Attacking midfielder Aaron Malouda (17), son of former French international Florent Malouda (80 caps, 9 goals), who signed his first professional contract on July 1, was behind Losc’s second goal by Remy Cabella.
Returning from a season-long loan to Trabzonspor in Turkey, Yusuf Yazici helped Ichem Ferrah score the third goal late in the game. Returning to training last week, Canadian forward Jonathan David played the second half. Attacking midfielder Hakon Haraldsson, Lille’s second rookie, played his first thirty minutes.
LOSC will play its second preparation match on Saturday against Cercle Bruges (Belgian D1).
