Nice wins against Brest in a tight match

They resisted and finally won. This Saturday, Brest hosted Nice for the 10th day of the Ligue 1 championship, and both teams were keen to win to start a series of victories.

Nice wins before Europe

And it was Nice who knew how to score and be more realistic in front of the goal. Just before half-time, Mohamed Ali Cho opened the scoring (37') but saw his goal canceled for offside. However, Nice was not discouraged. In the 42nd minute, it was finally Evann Guessand who gave the Niçois the advantage. Thanks to this goal, he brings his total to 5 goals since the start of the season. In the second half, Brest pushed with 6 shots on target, but Nice held on. This victory for the Aiglons is all the more important as the two teams totaled the same number of points before the match. This success therefore allows the visitors to take 3 points ahead of the Bretons and thus temporarily seize 5th place in the championship, synonymous with European place. For the locals, it will be necessary to quickly remobilize. This Wednesday, they will have an appointment with the Champions League to face Sparta Prague (9 p.m.). The Niçois, for their part, will host the Dutch club Twente in the Europa League this Thursday (6:45 p.m.).
