Casually, Nice is making up for its failed start to the season. First in its group in the European Cup, the Gym has fulfilled its continental objectives. The Aiglons will play in the round of 16 of the Europa League Conference.
We now had to confirm in the league, it’s done. Undefeated for more than a month and the defeat at the Parc des Princes, the Gym is gradually regaining ground.
And yet it had started rather badly this Sunday against enterprising Brestois. From the 2nd minute, the Bretons touch the bar of Kasper Schmeichel. The success seems to turn on the right side, well not immediately because Gaëtan Laborde also finds the post of Marco Bizot (26 ‘).
Among the signs that show that the Gym is regaining confidence, there are the return to form of Kasper Schmeichel. The Danish goalkeeper pulls out the few stops he needs at the right time.
Another encouraging sign, the inspired choices of Lucien Favre. Lulu has regained her magic. At half-time, the Swiss coach takes out Billal Brahimi at the break, he replaces him with Sofiane Diop.
A change that will change the face of the Riviera training. The former Monegasque brings his technical touch in the midfield. The Nice goal comes from an inspiration from Diop, his shot is blocked by Laborde. It will, perhaps, even be attributed to the former Montpellier player. In any case, Diop leads the way and it’s all Nice that smiles.
The good news keeps coming as Andy Delort returns from injury. The only downside was Nice’s nervousness at the exit of Mario Lemina and the inability of Dante’s teammates to take cover with a second goal.
Regardless, the Gym continues its second success in a row. The Red and Black formation confirms its qualification for the European Cup. The Niçois are currently 9th. There is only one meeting left before the break for the World Cup, it will be Friday 11 in Lyon to hope for even better and offer a second part of the exciting season.
