Jean-Luc Ettori

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jean-Luc Ettori (born July 29, 1955 in Marseille ) is a former French football player . The goalkeeper was the record player in Ligue 1 for almost twenty years with 602 appearances, all of which he made for AS Monaco , before his goalkeeper colleague Mickaël Landreau surpassed him in December 2013.

Club career

Jean-Luc Ettori, who was not exactly tall, but was able to jump and react quickly, who had previously played for Cercle Paul Bert de Rennes and INF Vichy , came to AS Monaco in 1975 . In the 1977/78 season he replaced the goalkeeper Yves Chauveau and won the championship title at the end of his first professional season . Two years later he also won the first cup with the Monegasque (3-1 in the final over US Orléans ), and in 1980 he was also appointed to the national team for the first time .

By the end of his career, Ettori, sometimes referred to as the "black spider" (l'araignée noire) , won two further championship titles, was also three times runner-up and twice cup winner (1985 1-0 against Paris Saint-Germain , 1991 1-0 against Olympique Marseille ), was also in two lost finals for the Coupe de France (1984 0-2 against FC Metz , 1989 3-4 against Marseille). In 1992 he reached the final of the European Cup Winners' Cup with Monaco , in which Werder Bremen prevailed 2-0. With 60 appearances in European competitions, Jean-Luc Ettori holds the club record at this level so far (April 2008); One of his great moments was the penalty shoot-out in the quarter-finals of the 1989/90 Cup Winners' Cup against Real Valladolid , when he saved three penalties. On the other hand, in 1991, when he had to accept four goals in two UEFA Cup games against Torpedo Moscow , he actually wanted to end his active career.

It was not until 1994, at the age of almost 39, that he left his place between the goal posts and worked for years as a goalkeeping coach at ASM, where he was also a brief sports director in early 2008. After his release in the summer of that year, Olympique Nîmes brought him in December 2009 as a goalkeeping coach. In the summer of 2011, he moved to Neuchâtel Xamax in Switzerland as a goalkeeping coach, but was dismissed after only a short time. Since 2013 he has been Vice President of the second division FC Tours .

In the national team

Between February 1980 and August 1982 Jean-Luc Ettori played nine A-internationals for the Équipe tricolore and also sat repeatedly as the second goalkeeper behind Dominique Dropsy on the bench. For the World Cup finals in 1982 coach called him Michel Hidalgo not only in the France squad but made him surprisingly to number 1. Despite repeated criticism of his performance was careful Ettori until and including the legendary semi-final against Germany (3:. 3 aet, 4: 5 on penalties) scored the French goal in six matches and was only replaced by Jean Castaneda in the game for third place . Shortly after this tournament, he was declared the main culprit, including from team circles, for the 4-0 debacle in front of his own audience in the friendly against Poland and henceforth no longer considered.
