Shoes: Frankowski (21eSP), Ojediran (86e) and Thomasson (90e) for the Blood and Gold // Simon (36eSP) and Cozza (71e) for the Canaries
You said clutch ?
Led until the last minutes, Lens miraculously overthrew a dying Nantes team after having believed they had won for the first time since the end of August (3-2). The first period was a matter of penalties, after a short interruption following a protest by northern supporters against the LFP, with a lot of tennis balls thrown on the meadow. It is first the VAR which signals to Mr. Turpin a foul on David Pereira Da Costa to allow Premislav Frankowski to give the advantage to the locals (1-0, 21e). But a few moments after harvesting a big opportunity, Facundo Medina returns the favor in his area by pushing past Nicolas Cozza. Sentence transformed by Moses Simon (1-1, 36e).
Pallois unfortunate hero
After the break, Lens tried to move forward, but still suffered from its lack of offensive weight, unable to frame the slightest shot outside of the penalty. And is punished by Nicolas Cozza, put into orbit by Ignatius Ganago and whose goal is validated by the video (1-2, 71e). Nothing is going well in the North, and Florian Sotoca is missing a huge opportunity. Before this completely crazy end to the match: served behind, Hamzat Ojediran equalizes (2-2, 86e). Then Nicolas Pallois, author of a remarkable intervention in the previous action, lobbed Alban Lafont with an inexplicable back header, offering the winning goal to Adrien Thomasson (3-2, 90e).
