We no longer stop the Gardois in 2022, the crocodiles win a third consecutive time, a first this season in Ligue 2. Faced with a very successful Pau team at home (7 successes in 11 games before this late match), the crocos were able, as in Valenciennes on August 7, to score three times in the second half after having made a first half more than medium. The Nîmes also managed not to concede a goal, a first since the 0-1 success at Sochaux on November 6th. Yassine Benrahou, scorer and passer against Pau, talks about the two faces of Nîmes Olympique in Béarn at a press conference: “The first period was very mixed, we hunkered down, we suffered but the essentials were achieved, that is to say we didn’t concede a goal before the break. In the second half, we put both fingers in the socket to wake up. I think the coach’s message was well understood. In the second half, we were quite the opposite, we were conquerors, we were good in the impacts. defensively, we were very good, we were united, united. We did what we had to do!”
A third game to play in the space of nine days
After playing on January 28 and then February 1, Nîmes will face a poorly ranked Dunkirk, the penultimate of this Ligue 2, at the end of the week. The Gardois will receive the Northerners this Saturday, February 4 at 7:00 p.m. with a view to aiming for a fourth consecutive victory. France Bleu Gard Lozère will make you live the meeting live and in full.
