With good possession of the ball, patience and commitment, the Northerners held on, notably thanks to two stunning saves from their goalkeeper Samy Merzouk at the end of the match (78th, 83rd) and great collective self-sacrifice. In defense, Victor Bonnechère showed a great sense of anticipation. This is an excellent result for the Northerners, given the context after their success against Real Madrid (2-1), and their two other draws in Lisbon against Sporting Portugal (2-2) and in Madrid against 'Atlético (1-1).
