Incident on the ground in Lens : Lucas Chevalier victim of shock and broken tooth, president ready to take the recovery

Lens, 30 November 2023 - The atmosphere is electric at the LOSC after the surprise victory over the AJ Auxerre (3-1) last Sunday. However, success is accompanied by an incident that shook the club. Lucas Chevalier, a pillar of the Leist defense, suffered a violent shock with his teammate Alexsandro in the final moments of the game.

The young defender, who already had three teeth broken due to this impact, was quickly taken to the dentist. The “president who paid” for this express appointment, according to sources close to the club. Lucas Chevalier, 23, expressed his anger at the return of the changing rooms, as noted by Bruno Genesio at his press conference.

The incident, which occurred in the additional time (90+2′), was immortalized by a photo shared by Lucas Chevalier on his Instagram account: a piece of tooth in his hand, accompanied by the comment: Alexsandro, the shocker, also commented on the event on social media, apologizing to Lucas Chevalier and promising to cover the costs.

The rapid intervention of the dentist allowed Lucas Chevalier to find a smile. A selfie was published Monday afternoon, showing the teeth perfectly restored.

This victory, which propelled LOSC to fourth place in the 1 McDonalds League, to a podium unit, cannot erase the consequences of this incident. The Leist club retained a margin of two points on the Olympique de Marseille, taking second place (55 pts).

Lucas Chevalier should be able to play during the trip to Angers, scheduled for next Sunday, marking the end of a busy week for the LOSC.
