“I asked them to be a dog team! They did.” (Nicolas Usai)

In addition to this success in Normandy, Nîmes hasn’t conceded a goal since February 1st thanks to great solidarity and especially thanks to goalkeeper Pekko Bråtveit who made nine saves! The Nîmes coach Nicolas Usaï savored this victory in Le Havre, the club owes it above all to the Norwegian goalkeeper who made an incredible save in the 89th minute on a free kick from Quentin Cornette: “This action on the part of Bråtveit sums up his match perfectly but it also sums up what is expected of Nîmes Olympique players from time to time, that is to say not always to be elegant, not always to be brilliant. I’m going to use a somewhat trivial term: I had asked them to be dogs in the field. I’m satisfied with that.”
