If we left the League 1 Let's move before the break, it was difficult not to smile when we saw her again. This weekend was marked by a shower of goals across the country, perhaps even stronger than the torrential downpours that hit some areas earlier in the day.
After seeing 38 goals in the first 8 matches of this 8th day, we were expecting a nice show to end the weekend. On paper, this Nantes-Lille was not the poster child of the century, but it could allow all these beautiful people to reach the symbolic bar of 40 pawns. It is …
Eighth at kick-off, LOSC had a response to give after blowing hot and cold. Bruno Genesio had once again relied on the eternal Olivier Giroud to energize his attack. Opposite, the Canaries offered an animation in 4-3-3 with their triggers Mohamed and Abline at the forefront.
Lille did not fall into the Nantes trap
A balance of power which turned in favor of the Mastiffs. More realistic in the two zones of truth, Bruno Genesio's men have provided the necessary ingredients to reap a precious success. The light came from Haraldsson. The Icelander exploited a good service from Giroud after a high recovery to put LOSC on the right track from the start of the match (1-0, 8th). An advantage managed intelligently by the Mastiffs, but not without difficulty. Lille went through some turbulence, and the Nantais could have resurfaced with a little more success, Abline hitting the uprights twice before half-time (19th, 45th).
Not to be outdone, LOSC also had its ammunition and hit wood (32nd), but it had to wait until the end of this match to take definitive shelter, after a second act where it had regained control. Igamane did not tremble to adjust Lopez for the break goal (0-2, 89th). Lille resumes its march forward and makes a small jump to sixth place. Fifteenth, Nantes remains deep in the ranking.
