The last goal of the Nîmes captain dated back to January 4, 2020 and an achievement signed in Tours in the Coupe de France. Against Toulouse on a cross from Yassine Benrahou, the number 23 from Nîmes touched the ball with his head in the 25th minute, enough to deceive Maxime Dupé, the TFC goalkeeper. Nîmes was in front at the break but could not do anything against Toulouse who wanted to celebrate the title of French L2 champion in front of their supporters. Even if Lucas Dias, still a very successful player, delayed the deadline, the Gard goalkeeper unfortunately had to bow twice in the second half. Anthony Briançon, after this anecdotal defeat, was happy to have been able to score again: “Yassine Benrahou gave me a nice gift, I’m lucky to be in a good position to be able to score. It’s a shame not to have won this match or at least drawn a match. It’s almost a year and half of the galleys, it’s a lot of things that come to the surface. It’s to imagine my family who must be very proud. I thank all the people who really have been with me because alone we can’t do it. I thank all my family and my in-laws, this goal, I dedicate to them!”
