Why It Matters
Dino Toppmöller arrived in Lens on June 16 to replace Pierre Sage.
Three months in the North, a Champions Trophy won against Paris Saint-Germain in August, a perfect entry into the Champions League... But the Lens adventure will stop there for Dino Toppmöller.
The German coach, who arrived in Lens on June 16 to replace Pierre Sage, will be dismissed from his duties as reported by our colleagues from the Team, without detailing the reasons.
If the summer started perfectly for the 45-year-old technician with the victory against PSG in the Champions Trophy, the debut in Ligue 1 was more mixed. Ranked in 10th place in the French elite rankings, the Lensois have only one victory in four days.
A scathing start against Le Havre at home (5-2), then the collapse with two defeats against Strasbourg (2-1) and Lorient (0-1), and a draw at Le Mans on the last day (2-2). The crazy victory on the pitch of Slavia Prague (2-3) during the first Champions League meeting did not save Dino Toppmöller.
