The noose tightens on all floors, in the large soap opera of the
Ligue 1. This interesting poster between the OGC Nice and FC Nantes was the symbol this Friday evening to lift the curtain of this 28th day. The Aiglons had an answer to give after three games in a row without the slightest success. Often sovereign at home, Franck Haise's players stayed on a setback against Lyon (0-2) and a draw against Auxerre (1-1), while the Riviera derby had shot in favor of the rival and a Monaco competitor (1-2).

In short, the margin of Nice is narrow in recent weeks in the race for Europe. If the gym was very favorite of this match against Nantes stuck at the bottom of the table, the absences of Captain Dante and the left piston Melvin Bard, both suspended following their recent evictions, had led Franck Haise to reshape an eleven still lessened. And that benefited the Canaries, who had the last word in this balance of power.

Nice can't do it

Superiors in the hold of the ball, the Niçois could not materialize their highlights, unlike a well -organized and very realistic Nantes team. With a nice instant shot, Douglas Augusto lit the light to unlock the meeting (0-1, 11th). The Nice revolt was not long in coming. Standing to fill the suspension of Bard, Abdi presented the two teams tied in stride (1-1, 14).

A goal that has not radically changed the physiognomy of the match. Because this Friday evening, the Aiglons did not have the resources to go after their intentions. They also and above all fell on a very inspired lopes (19th, 21st), before being surprised again at the end of the first period on a shot from the left of the talented abln (1-2, 39th). Despite a second act dominated with the head and shoulders, Nice continued to stop on Lopes, imperial (60th, 70th). The score has no longer evolved. Aiglons no longer advance. Nantes offers a real breath of fresh air.
