Lens – Lorient : Sur quelle chaîne TV suivre le match en direct ?

Le RC Lens et le FC Lorient veulent rapidement repartir de l’avant. Battus lors de la précédente journée, les deux clubs se retrouvent ce samedi à Bollaert avec la même ambition : renouer avec la victoire et effacer une première frustration en championnat. À domicile, les Sang et Or auront toutefois la pression face à des Merlus déterminés à réagir.

Lens a laissé filer un résultat positif à Strasbourg (2-1). Après avoir ouvert le score sur un penalty transformé par Florian Thauvin à la 38e minute, les Artésiens ont finalement vu les Alsaciens renverser la rencontre. La soirée a également été marquée par la blessure de Maik Nawrocki, remplacé par Ruben Aguilar. Le Racing s’est néanmoins renforcé dans les dernières heures du mercato avec l’arrivée de Jean-Clair Todibo, prêté par West Ham. Le défenseur français doit apporter davantage de stabilité à une arrière-garde qui en aura besoin face à Lorient. grenadier.co.za

Lorient veut rebondir à Bollaert

Les Merlus restent eux aussi sur une défaite. Surpris par Troyes (2-1), les Lorientais ont longtemps couru après le score avant de réduire l’écart grâce à Jean-Victor Makengo dès le retour des vestiaires, à la 51e minute. Malgré cette réaction, ils n’ont pas réussi à revenir à hauteur du promu. Un déplacement à Bollaert représente donc un sérieux défi, mais aussi une occasion idéale de lancer leur réaction.

Le coup d’envoi de Lens – Lorient, comptant pour la 3e journée de Ligue 1, sera donné ce samedi 5 septembre à 17h15, au stade Bollaert-Delelis. La rencontre sera à suivre en direct sur Ligue 1+ 2 et sera également accessible via DAZN.

African Collaborations Group (ACG), the leading strategic project origination and collaboration platform focused on the industrialisation of sport in Africa through the origination of bankable sport and entertainment district ecosystems, today announced the appointment of Fatma Samoura to its Advisory Board.

Recognised as one of the most distinguished sport administrators of her generation, Ms Samoura brings more than three decades of international leadership experience spanning sport, development, humanitarian affairs and global governance.

Ms Samoura served as Secretary General of FIFA from 2016 to 2023, becoming the first woman and the first non-European to hold the position in FIFA’s history. During her tenure, she oversaw FIFA’s global administration across its major operational and institutional functions, including the delivery of two FIFA World Cups and two FIFA Women’s World Cups. She also played a leading role in strengthening FIFA’s governance, member association services and international development programmes.

Before joining FIFA, Ms Samoura spent more than 21 years with the United Nations, holding senior leadership positions in humanitarian and development operations, including with the World Food Programme (WFP), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA). Her UN career took her across Africa, Central and South America and Asia, giving her extensive experience working with governments, international institutions and development partners.

She has served as a Senate Member of the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) since February 2022.

Her appointment strengthens the ACG Advisory Board with exceptional expertise in global sport governance, institutional leadership, international development, federation relations and the delivery of major sporting events — capabilities directly relevant to originating and structuring large-scale sport and entertainment district projects across the African continent.

“Fatma Samoura is one of the most distinguished sport administrators of her generation. Her unique experience at the intersection of global governing bodies, national federations, governments and international institutions is precisely the calibre of expertise ACG needs as we originate a new generation of bankable sport and entertainment district ecosystems across the African continent. Her presence on our Advisory Board is a genuine strategic asset,” said Nicolas Pompigne-Mognard (www.Pompigne-Mognard.com), Founder and Executive Chairman of ACG.

The ACG Advisory Board provides strategic guidance as ACG originates and structures large-scale sport and entertainment district projects across the continent, aligning governments, development finance institutions (DFIs), investors, sport bodies and infrastructure partners to support the development of financially sustainable, mixed-use district ecosystems.

Africa’s sport economy is projected to reach $20 billion by 2035, yet the continent continues to lack the integrated district ecosystems required to support large-scale development. ACG addresses this gap by originating bankable sport and entertainment district projects, moving beyond single-venue development models towards mixed-use, revenue-generating and financially sustainable district ecosystems.

Through its collaborative model, ACG convenes governments, PPP authorities and regulators, development finance institutions, private investors, developers, designers and engineers, legal and transaction advisors, operators, sport federations and leagues, event promoters, media and broadcast partners, academic institutions and host communities, creating structured pathways from concept to feasibility, bankability and delivery.

Outstanding sporting performances by secondary school students in Mauritius were recognised at the inaugural National Schools Sports Award 2026, held at the Paul Octave Wiehe Auditorium in Réduit following the Intercollege Sports Competitions (ICSC) on 3September.

The ceremony was attended by the Minister of Youth and Sports, Mr Darmarajen Nagalingum, the Minister of Education and Human Resource, Dr Mahend Gungapersad, Junior Minister of Youth and Sports, Mr Gilbert Tony Apollon, as well as rectors, educators, coaches, students and parents.

Jointly organised by the Ministry of Youth and Sports and the Ministry of Education and Human Resource, the ICSC brought together students in seven disciplines: athletics, badminton, basketball, football, swimming, table tennis and volleyball.

In his address, Minister Nagalingum highlighted the importance of the reintroduction of intercollege sports competitions in supporting the holistic development of students. He underlined the contribution of sports to physical fitness and mental well-being, while helping young people develop essential skills such as teamwork, communication, leadership and resilience.

Sport, he added, is also a powerful unifying force and an important cultural cement for “Mauritianism”, bringing together young people from different communities across the country.

For his part, Minister Gungapersad emphasised that education extends beyond academic achievement and should provide opportunities for students to engage in sports, music, dance, drama, painting, slam and other areas of personal development.

He also highlighted the role of sport in keeping young people away from drugs and other harmful influences, noting that investment in youth sports contributes to healthier communities and helps equip young people with skills that can benefit them throughout their education, careers and lives.

Students and schools recognised

In each of the seven disciplines, individual winners received a trophy, certificate of achievement and a cash prize of Rs 25,000.

In athletics, the best female athlete was from Loretto College of Quatre Bornes, while the best male athlete was from Dr Regis Chaperon SSS. The best female badminton player was from Dukesbridge Secondary School, while the male award went to a student from James Burty David SSS.

In basketball, the Most Valuable Player awards went to students from Le Bocage International School in the female category and Collège du St Esprit Quatre Bornes in the male category. In football, the female award was won by Le Bocage International School, while the male award went to Collège du St Esprit Rivière Noire. The best female swimmer was from Le Bocage International School and the best male swimmer from Queen Elizabeth College.

In table tennis, the best female player was from Loretto College of Quatre Bornes, while the male award went to Le Bocage International School.

School awards were also presented. Loretto College of Quatre Bornes was named Best Female School after securing 11 gold, six silver and five bronze medals, while St Mary’s College was named Best Male School with six gold, two silver and six bronze medals. Each winning school received a trophy, certificate and Rs 50,000 cash prize.

The National School Sports Award 2026 represents a new initiative to formally recognise sporting excellence following the ICSC. First introduced in 2025, the ICSC provides secondary school students with a structured platform to compete and develop their sporting abilities, with the 2026 edition further expanding participation opportunities.

The competition was open to boys and girls aged 12 to 21 across different categories. A new Benjamin Boys and Girls category was also introduced for 12- and 13-year-olds in athletics, table tennis and badminton, encouraging younger students to take part in competitive sport and providing an additional avenue for recognising sporting achievements.

Kaizer Chiefs forward Etiosa Ighodaro is determined to put a frustrating injury-hit campaign behind him and make his mark this season.

Ighodaro joined the club last season from rivals Mamelodi Sundowns, but was limited to seven appearances across all competitions due to his injury setbacks.

The 25-year-old has been ever-present in this squad this campaign and has only missed two matches in all competitions.

After limited game time last term, Ighodaro says a productive pre-season has helped rebuild his confidence as he looks to deliver his best for the club and its supporters.

“Last season was quite frustrating for me because of injuries,” Ighodaro told his club’s official website.

“But that is behind me now and I am looking forward to a great season. Hopefully, you’ll see the best of me. I am pushing myself hard to make the Club and the supporters proud.

“I really benefitted from pre-season because I didn’t play a lot last season so I needed the minutes in the practice games to build my confidence.”
