Ligue 1. Racing: mourning Lucas Hogsberg will not participate in the match against Auxerre

On ^Matchday 10 of Ligue 1, this Wednesday (9:05 p.m.) at the Meinau, Liam Rosenior will have to reorganize his defense. Doukouré, sent off Sunday evening in Lyon for a nasty tackle on Malick Fofana , is suspended. The duration of his sanction will be determined by the disciplinary committee this Wednesday.

The Racing coach will also have to do without Hogsberg, as the Danish international is suffering from a family bereavement. "Lucas learned the bad news just before the match on Sunday, but he insisted on playing," Rosenior said. "I found him very stable emotionally, he delivered a great performance given the context. I'm very proud of him. We gave him a few days off so he could spend time with his loved ones."

Around Sarr, the returning Chilwell (muscle injury) and Omobamidele are expected to form the defensive trident. Since his bench depth allows it, the Strasbourg coach will also be able to rotate and leave some of Sunday's starters on the bench in favor of Rafael Luis, Amougou, Nanasi, or Lemarechal. Note that Amo-Ameyaw (sutured tibia) is also operational.

For Auxerre, Mara, on loan from Racing, will not be allowed to play. Senaya will start in defense.
