For the eighth day in a row, the Gym was able to preserve its invincibility in the championship, falling this Sunday evening in the RCSA to close the 12e lifting of Ligue 1. Undefeated at home this season (three wins and three draws), the Azuréens confirm their status as candidates for Europe.
Faced with Strasbourg in difficulty in recent weeks, weighed down by a third consecutive defeat, the Niçois were able to show themselves astounding. Surprised by Bakwa in the first period (0-1, 20e), the Aiglons responded after the break thanks to the great vision of the game from young Diop, decisive passer for Bard (1-1, 54e) and still determining on the csc of the unfortunate Sylla (2-1, 62e).
With this victory, Nice climbs into the top 5 of the elite, between Lille and Lyon, just three lengths from OM and the third step of the podium. Racing for its part is no longer moving forward, confined to 11e level, with only three points ahead of the red zone.
