Entente Sportive et Athlétique de Linas-Montlhéry is a football club based in the towns of Linas and Montlhéry in France. [2] As of the 2022–23 season, it competes in the Championnat National 3, the fifth tier of the French football league system. [3] The club's colors are yellow, and its nickname is Sang et Or, meaning Blood and Gold. [4] [5]
History
Linas-Montlhéry was founded in 1960 as a result of the merging of two clubs, US Linas and ES Montlhéry.[ citation needed]
The club gained notable attention after being drawn against French champions Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in the round of 64 of the 2019–20 Coupe de France. [6] The match took place on 5 January 2020 at the Stade Robert Bobin, and ended in a 6–0 victory for PSG. [7] [8] Unfortunately for Linas-Montlhéry, they had a penalty saved by PSG's goalkeeper Sergio Rico when the score was 1–0. [9] After the end of the 2019–20 season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Linas-Montlhéry sat top of their group in the Régional 1. They were subsequently promoted to the Championnat National 3, the fifth division in the French football pyramid. [10]
On 13 November 2021, Linas-Montlhéry eliminated Ligue 2 side Dunkerque in the seventh round of the 2021–22 Coupe de France. [11] The match ended in a 1–0 victory for ESALM after a late goal from Tom Bouvil. Goalkeeper Ali Lutumba made several "heroic" saves to stop Dunkerque from scoring. [12] On 19 December, Linas-Montlhéry eliminated Ligue 1 club Angers in the round of 64 thanks to two goals from Pascal Leno. [13] In the round of 32, Sang-et-Or were knocked out by Ligue 2 side Amiens; the Somme side took a 3–0 lead, only to concede three Linas-Montlhéry goals to bring the match to a penalty shoot-out. Amiens eventually won the shoot-out by a score of 4–3. [14]
Stadium
The club is a resident of both the Stade Paul Desgouillons and the Stade Cosom, although the Stade Paul Desgouillons is the main venue at which the club play at. [15] The Stade Cosom has a capacity of 1,000. [16]
In 2020, the Stade Paul Desgouillons was renovated, in order for Linas-Montlhéry to not be relegated. [17] [18]
Tanguy Ndombele is an icon of Linas-Montlhéry, and the club has put up a poster of him in the Stade Paul Desgouillons, just like several other notable former youth players. [19]
