The derby between Troyes and Reims on behalf of the 9th day of Ligue 1 promises to be boiling.
Even the mayors of these two towns, about 120 km apart, kindly launched hostilities.
François Baroin (LR), mayor of Troyes since 1995, motivated Adil Rami and his teammates in his own way a few days ago, during an interview with local TV Canal 32.
“There's the derby to prepare for and that's the thing you can't miss.
No matter how you play, you have to hit Reims, that's all, ”launched the former Minister of the Economy.
Even politicians get involved.

Arnaud Robinet, mayor of Reims since 2014 who left Les Républicains in 2021 to join Édouard Philippe's party, was much more measured in responding to him on Twitter.
“Even if I ardently wish for a victory for Stade de Reims with our friends at Estac, a derby must be a great celebration of regional football with the highlighting of our two clubs!
Go Red and White!
