Nantes overthrows Toulouse and launches its season
Before an interesting multiplex with in particular an enticing Nice-OM, to follow live commented on our site, FC Nantes had to finally win in front of their public after three meetings without the slightest victory. Kombouaré’s men rubbed shoulders with Toulouse, who had just been promoted to Ligue 1. For the occasion, Kombouaré opted for the classic with his attacking trio Simon-Guessand-Coco. On the Toulouse side, Montanier had to compose without Healey, injured in the knee. Abouklhlal replaced Bégraoui on the right wing.
But yet, the start of the game was very complicated for the locals. Jostled from the start by the promoted, the Nantes remained too much in their half of the field, despite a superb cross from Girotto (10th). But by dint of insisting, Toulouse managed to open the scoring after a magnificent ball from Van den Boomen deposited in depth for Aboukhlal, who adjusted Lafont with a half-volley (1-0, 16th). Better in this match, Téfécé went back to the locker room with the advantage in the score and could make an excellent Dupé, decisive in front of Guessand (26th).
Nantes overthrew Toulouse in ten minutes
And the return from the locker room was directly hot for the Canaries. After a header from Nicolaisen repelled by Lafont, the Nantes goalkeeper missed his exit, but Toulouse failed to frame when the goal was empty (46th). A big chance that Téfécé may regret, because a few minutes later, Guessand took over a cross from Simon and managed to place an uncrossed header to equalize (1-1, 50). Barely a scorer, Guessand found Mohamed with a good cross, who in turn scored with an uncrossed header to overturn the match (2-1, 55th).
In ten minutes, the Nantes people completely reversed the score and managed to take off thanks to a missile from Simon, under the bar of Dupé (60th). And despite a cross found by Chaïbi (71st), the Languedoc-Roussillon formation could not come back and therefore conceded their first defeat of the season, before receiving PSG. Nantes, which returns to Toulouse, will go to Strasbourg during the next day.
