Nantes: Pallois’ terrible record

This week, everything was successful at Olympique Lyonnais. Victorious this Thursday in the Europa League on the lawn of Glasgow Rangers (1-4), Pierre Sage’s men did it again this afternoon against FC Nantes (2-0). Les Gones have just signed their fourth victory in a row against the Canaries. Nicolás Tagliafico opened the scoring for the Lyonnais before the unfortunate Nicolas Pallois sealed the victory for the Rhodaniens after an own goal. Moreover, the central defender has at the same time equalized a sad record in Ligue 1.

Nicolas Pallois, co-holder of a terrible record

With this new own goal, Nicolas Pallois became the second player to have scored five own goals in Ligue 1 in the 21st century after Damien Da Silva. A very sad record for the Nantes player, who has been starting in central defense for several seasons now. But the former Girondins de Bordeaux sometimes has bad luck in his interventions like this afternoon on the pitch at Groupama Stadium.
