According to us, the long accent would be more appropriate here than the short accent of A, which we consider as written inaccurately (cf. bar 66). In FE (→GE,EE) the sign was not included at all, which can be considered to be justified due to the less intense dynamics in bars 67-68 in comparison with bars 65-66. Taking this into account, in the main text we leave the application of the accent at the performer's discretion.
