The weeks follow each other and are not alike for Nîmes Olympique. We were expecting a victory for the Crocos in Béarnaise land and they failed. Nîmes is now the last club not to have won away from home this season. The Nîmes took only one point out of the Costières stadium and consecutive losing streak now stands at six… Nîmes captain Benoît Poulain is very concerned about this new defeat: “I’ve been worried since the match at Quevilly-Rouen (3-1 defeat, October 8, 2022). We showed great things against Amiens (2-0 success, October 15, 2022). We had a real match, I call it a high-level match because in the engagement, I hadn’t seen that since the start of the season on the other victories. What you have to do is repeat this as many times as possible. kind of match there. We got a little closer away from it. We have to continue to take the points at home. Outside, we must have the same mentality as against Pau but we have to improve the technical side, the balance of the team. But yes there is a real concern, there is an urgency, we have to stay on the alert. I would have preferred to play a Ligue 2 match next weekend instead of the Cup de France. We will try to get back up the slope as quickly as possible.”
