RC Lens won at La Beaujoire this Saturday evening during the 20th day of Ligue 1 (0-1).
The Sang et Or are once again among the leading roles in the championship. This Saturday, it was in Nantes that the Lensois scored plenty of points in the 20e act of L1. A second consecutive victory which allows them to re-enter the circle of Europeans. Temporarily of course.
Jostled at La Beaujoire by the hard-hitting and determined Canaries, the Artésiens were able to keep their backs round to weather the storm without damage – like their goalkeeper Samba, author of an exceptional save on an Aguilar header against his camp just before the break.
The Top 4 in sight
Returning from the locker room, that’s where Racing took their chance. Receiving a laser pass from Medina, Pereira Da Costa showered the Nantes public with a placed shot (0-1, 48e). The one and only goal of the game. For a cruel outcome for the locals, but not necessarily undeserved for strong visitors.
In the ranking, Lens takes the opportunity to enter the Top 6, while awaiting possible responses from Reims and Marseille on Sunday. At the height of Losc and only two lengths from Monaco and the fourth place synonymous with C1. Unable to win in Ligue 1 since December 2, Nantes, on the other hand, is sinking a little further. With only three units ahead of the red zone.
