Ligue 1: Arsène Kouassi settles scores with Hervé Koffi

After Lorient's 2-0 victory over Angers on Sunday in matchday 22 of the Ligue 1, Arsène Kouassi sent a message to his national teammate Hervé Koffi, the Angers goalkeeper and fellow Burkina Faso international.

Arsène Kouassi wrote on social media: "Sorry my friend, I had to take revenge today. Have a great season, see you soon." After delivering a brilliant assist for Lorient’s opening goal, Kouassi helped secure the win for his team and "avenged" the 0-2 defeat in the first leg.
Hervé Koffi replied: "That's football, little brother. Congratulations on the win, and congrats to you too. We’re in this together." These messages are a testament to the outstanding sportsmanship and genuine friendship between the national teammates.

Both players are pillars of the Stallions national team, and Arsène Kouassi and Hervé Koffi rank among the top stars in Ligue 1 thanks to their impressive individual performances.
