In front of the scoreboard for many minutes, LOSC finally conceded a draw (1-1) in their opposition with FC Nantes this Saturday. This result sounds like a very bad operation in Ligue 1.
Back in front of their home crowd this Saturday, as part of the sixteenth day of Ligue 1 McDonald's, the LOSC players maintained their invincibility by recording a draw (1-1) when they hosted FC Nantes. Gabriel Gudmundsson opened the scoring in the first half (41'), cementing Lille's outrageous domination, while Matthis Abline restarted the proceedings with an equalizer from the penalty spot (69'). The Mastiffs thus extend their streak to eighteen matches without defeat in all competitions, gradually approaching their record, but at what price?
For its first outing of the year, LOSC had the opportunity to take a place on the podium if successful. AS Monaco had lost a few weeks earlier against Paris Saint-Germain (2-4), offering this gift to its direct competitors. This present was refused by the Lille team, which stagnates in fourth place with the point of a draw as the only reward (28 points). But by looking ahead, she ends up forgetting the threats lurking in the shadows, like OGC Nice and Olympique Lyonnais.
If the Mastiffs miss the mark when it is possible to get on the podium, it is a bad habit, this is not the case for their direct competitors. Respectively opposed to Rennes and Montpellier, the Aiglons (3-2) and the Gones (1-0) won their game and now represent a real threat. The last named, fifth, pick up with Bruno Genesio's men, only separated by a goal difference. The Azuréens are still one point behind, but the two points lost this Saturday on the pitch of the Decathlon Arena – Stade Pierre Mauroy
relaunch the race for the Top 5 rather than the podium. Olympique de Marseille, which faces Le Havre AC at 8:45 p.m. this Sunday, for its part has the opportunity to escape.
