Falzon, who joined the side in September, was in the starting five on Tuesday and played 23 minutes in front of a crowd of 300 people – a step forward as a limited number of fans are now being allowed to watch after the repercussions of covid-19.

Etoile Angers now play Orlean Loiret in the French Cup next Tuesday.
