Nice with a bang, Monaco flees on the wire

Monaco believed in it until the end and deserved to come back to the score in Lorient (2-2) as Philippe Clement’s team dominated the match. It was once more Wissam Ben Yedder, who entered a few minutes earlier, who placed a close header in the area to deceive Mannone, very wait-and-see on the spot (2-2, 90th +3), and save his people. The Bretons had taken the advantage thanks to their Moffi-Ouattara doublet, the second equalizing (1-1, 75th) before delivering a decisive pass to his Nigerian friend (2-1, 77th). They had long believed in an unexpected success, but with three amounts touched and dangerous situations in spades, in particular a penalty taken away by the VAR for an offside from the toe of Wanderson’s shoe, ASM had mastered the meeting. until black hole a few minutes.

We do not know if Montpellier wanted to celebrate the induction of Didier Digard on the bench but his open house operation allowed Nice to win their most convincing success of the season (6-1). The team begins following Lucien Favre in an ultra positive way. Nicolas Pépé, author of a double, was untenable like Kephren Thuram, scorer too. Digard even had the pleasure of relaunching Andy Delort who took the opportunity to plant a superb recovery from the left following his missed right… But in terms of the masterpiece, it is on the side of an exceptional free kick from Téji Savanier that you have to look for, a strike in the top corner. This magic paw should not make us forget the pitiful match of Montpellier, obviously came on a pleasure visit to the Côte d’Azur. This, fortunately, will not prevent Digard from savoring this first happiness as a coach. His group has experienced so many setbacks this season that he can hope that this success signals the start of a revolt. It would be premature to come forward but this demonstration already offers a nice breath of fresh air for the club.
