AS Saint-Étienne had a large influence on this meeting, this is reflected in the figures. However, we also see that the Nantes residents were able to be dangerous in the counter phases and defended well overall.
Never since the data was collected has AS Saint-Étienne had such significant possession in a match (75%). In the first half, the Greens even had 78% possession of the ball. The men ofEirik Horneland are well ahead in terms of passes, aerial duels won and shots.
On the other hand, Nantes focused its shots more regularly and ultimately proved more dangerous than ASSE in this match. After the meeting, Antoine Kombouare regretted that his players did not know how to restart cleanly more regularly. A statistic is significant at this level with 54 clearances made during the match. Nantes did not bother with the ball.
It should be noted, and this is rare enough to underline it, that Saint-Étienne largely dominated its opponent in the air, with 67% of aerial duels won.
