ASF B edged past RSK 1:0 in Ligue 1's regular season round two on Sunday, a result that tightens the hosts' grip on fourth place while the visitors' woes deepen. The match concluded at the Stade Municipal with G. C. Sereme's second-half effort proving decisive, though the evening was defined as much by discipline as by football. To be fair, the two red cards overshadowed everything else that happened on the pitch.
Sereme broke the deadlock in the 48th minute, catching the RSK defence unawares as they kept knocking on the door without finding the net. He latched onto a loose ball in the box and fired past the keeper before the away side could reorganise. By then the hosts had already earned the right to take the lead.
The game turned in the 68th minute when O. Traore picked up two bookings in five minutes and was shown the red card. He had been one of the more active players for RSK, but a late challenge on a midfielder left him with no option but to leave the field. ASF B took them apart in the space that followed.
RSK's misery doubled just eleven minutes later when A. A. Traore also received a straight red card after picking up his second yellow. The away side had nothing to do all evening and now had to finish with ten men. The high line was picked apart as the hosts pressed forward.
ASF B extend their unbeaten run to eight across all competitions with this victory, moving to four points from two games. RSK remain on one point in tenth place after their first defeat of the season. The gap between them now feels wider than the table suggests.
