00:00The atmosphere is electric inside the Stade de la Bourgeois, has not looked to end a run
00:10of four games without a victory here today against a Nice side that held Paris Saint-Germain
00:17to a draw last time out.
00:20It is Nice in their all-white strip today, looking to secure a victory that would take
00:30them into the top half of the table.
00:34They were impressive last time against Paris Saint-Germain, Franck Eze starting to find
00:44his feet.
00:45The new Nice coach who worked wonders with Lens over the last four years, and Nice will
00:54start this.
00:55Mendy, touched off by Gerson, Antoine Mendy, finding himself in an unusual position now
01:06on the edge of the non-box.
01:10Well cut out by Ali Abdi, this is Jeremy Boga, an Ivorian winger, Moukoko appeals for a handball,
01:23only Moukoko appealed really, Jonathan Flores with the ball, now Nice probing once more,
01:34the shot is on, and it was a good strike from...
01:37And now he's looking to take Nice to another level, here's Jonathan Close, there could
01:42be a chance for Nice here, is it going to fall for Gerson, not quite, Boga was on to
01:50score, Abdi back to Boga, Boga through, another chance for Nice and Moukoko, and a clearance
01:59by Mendy.
02:01And now the counterattack for Nice, Evan Gerson, Gerson, can he get the shot away, he can,
02:09and again Albon Laffon getting down quickly to us, that is it though for the first half,
02:19an opening period dominated by Nice, but Albon Laffon has made the saves, and the first half
02:26is over, 45 minutes dominated by Nice, not struggling, suffering, not creating opportunities,
02:36let's see what will happen in the second half.
02:56Lead by Jeremy Boga, Rosario, Close is going to let that go for a corner, invites Koza forward,
03:11Moses Simon, Simon whips it into the middle and Nobbs have the goal, a perfectly timed
03:23run by Mathis Abdi, and a bullet head up from the France Under-21 International, and
03:33Nantes having been under the cosh for much of the first half, they've come back into
03:40it in this second period and they've struck first.
03:53Moses Simon with some excellent wing play here, it's a delightful cross, and Mathis Abdi who's worked hard
04:01defensively today, showing that he has potency in the box as well, it's a really good head up,
04:07he got there in front of Abdi and he made it count.
04:15Credit to his non-fans here, it looks and feels like they're on the brink of winning a cup final or something,
04:20absolutely loving this, but they've got problems here at Nantes.
04:27Evanguesson with the shot, what a good finish from Evanguesson, and Nantes have been pegged back instantly.
04:37A really strong reaction by Nice, and the player who was on loan here at Nantes a couple of seasons ago
04:44has come back to horn the canaries.
04:51Clever little flip from Gaetan Laporte, it was then teed up by Sofiane Dion, and Evanguesson just squeezing this
04:58beyond La Fonte, he got attached to the goalkeeper, couldn't keep it out.
05:02Evanguesson's fourth league goal this season.
05:21Now they are coming forward.
05:25Oh and a chance at the far post, a big chance.
05:30Jonathan Close has been penalised, I think for a handball.
05:33Laporte.
05:45Evanguesson fighting, but Le Penon does well, he's been fouled, but Payens says the referee.
05:50Advantage for Nantes, the Vama.
05:53Kipoff.
05:59Diop.
06:01Good ball.
06:02Laporte.
06:03Possibilities here for Nice, the shot is poor.
06:07So poor it'll be kept alive by Close.
06:11This though is Cadoueri for Nantes.
06:17The home side being urged forward, Moses Simon against Mendy.
06:22Cadoueri, look at the space for Sorba Thomas.
06:26Sorba Thomas with the, I think it was an attempted shot.
06:35Good ball from Thomas, shooting charge could save Borja.
06:40He denies Kelvin Amia.
06:48Suddenly it's not looking the more likely, Cadoueri.
06:52Le Penon, another super start from Martin Bulka.
06:58And now Thomas.
07:03Philippe de Balmain getting here a little bit carried away there.
07:06It was always going to be difficult to score.
07:12Well time has run out for both of these two teams to try to find a winner.
07:16A breathless second half, a couple of outstanding goals.
07:22And now the match is over, ladies and gentlemen.
07:25Nantes 1-1.
07:28It's the final score for the Avelin and Guisan.
07:31The two scorers today, Le Penon on the screen.
07:34He had a very good opportunity in the last part of the game.
07:38Unfortunately for him, the goalie was ready to stop it.
07:41Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for being here with us on BaneSports.
07:44And see you the next time with so much more.
07:46See you.
07:51Bye.
