Sharing points at Francis-Le-Blé
The Nantais held on and obtained the point of the draw on the Brest pitch. The Canaries are getting a little closer to maintaining their lead with four points ahead of the play-off with two days remaining.
For its part, Brest remains 3rd but will be hanging on to Lille’s result this Monday for the last qualifying place for the Champions League.
The acceleration of Le Douaron
The Brest striker struggles and crosses hard at the penalty point but Cozza gets ahead of Pereira Lage and pushes back for a corner in front of the unleashed Brest ultras.
Additional time
Five minutes were added to the regulation time of this meeting. The people of Brest are pushing to make the decision.
One last change
Antoine Kombouaré changes side for added time. Cozza replaces the very active Coco.
One more warning
Nerves are tense at the end of the meeting. Clément Turpin receives a new yellow card. Chirivella is behind Satriano.
Doumbia dry Coco
The Brest midfielder arrives well behind Coco. Clément Turpin sends a fairly logical yellow card.
BIG OPPORTUNITY FOR Nantes
Brest was not far from being trapped. Mohamed sends a good cross towards Kadewere who misses alone against Bizot.
Locko is too short
On a cross from the right, Bradley Locko jumps highest but it is not enough to regain the ball. This second period lacks clear opportunities.
A new change for Nantes
Antoine Kombouaré brings out the former Brest player Jean-Kevin Duverne who receives applause from his former supporters. Kelvin Amian comes into play.
Duverne well framed
The former Brestois tries to overwhelm Chardonnet but the Breton captain is perfect in his intervention and relieves an entire stadium.
Douaron well received
The Brest striker has just entered the game and is cut up by Mollet who escapes without warning.
The last two changes for Brest
Doumbia and Le Douaron come into play and replace Camara and Mounié.
Abline unhappy
The young Nantes striker seems disappointed to go out. He missed three big chances in the first half and seemed to be rehashing.
A triple change for FC Nantes
Traoré, Moutoussamy and Abline are replaced by Mollet, Chirivella and Mohamed.
Pallois whistled
Since his duel with Pereira Lage, Nicolas Pallois has clearly been taken advantage of by Brest supporters.
Possession for Brest
If the number of shots is the same on both sides (8), the two teams do not really share the leather. Brest has 72% possession.
Abline uncrosses the head
The Nantes striker takes a cross from Traoré but Bizot intervenes without trembling. He quickly restarts towards Pereira Lage. The Breton winger gets the best of Duverne and continues with a complicated volley which is off target.
Pallois is unhappy
The Nantes defender gets the better of Pereira Lage who gets angry and tackles Pallois. The latter gets up very quickly and attacks the former Angevin.
Mounié ahead of Cömert
The former Montpellier striker is more lively than Cömert and takes the lead but the latter goes over.
A new box
Clément Turpin must still take action After a delayed intervention by Kenny Lala on Nicolas Pallois. The rhythm of the meeting is choppy.
Contacts harden
A series of small mistakes in this sequence. That of Pallois is too much for Clément Turpin who whistles.
Brassier gets up slowly
The Brest defender got up and resumed his place in the central hinge.
Traoré makes a big mistake
The Nantes winger is well behind on his tackle. Lilian Brassier writhes in pain and is taken care of by the Brestois medical staff.
Bizot’s reflex stop will not be counted!
Kadewere is found in the penalty area and deflects just in front of Bizot who makes an exceptional reflex save. The former Lyonnais was, in any case, offside.
Lala’s safe return
Abline tries to get rid of Brassier but Lala replaces her teammate and returns perfectly to the feet of the Nantes striker.
Missing Duverne completely
The Nantes full-back tries to find a partner in the opposing area but his tense cross is blocked by Moussa Sissoko.
Already a corner
After a favorable counter, Steve Mounié approaches the opposing cages and crosses but Pallois counters and concedes a corner.
Here we go again!
This Brest-Nantes restarts at Francis-Le-Blé. No goal after the first 45 minutes and yet there was no shortage of chances.
0-0 at halftime despite plenty of chances
The score at the break does not reflect the appearance of this first act. Both teams created big opportunities without finding the fault.
The Brestois lost Pierre Lees-Melou and Del Castillo to injury.
Two more minutes
Additional time for this lively first act has just been indicated by the fourth referee. There is still room for one last opportunity.
Magnetti’s strike
The Brest midfielder tries from outside the area but his attempt escapes Lafont’s frame quite wide.
THE MUST-HAVE FOR ABLINE!!
WHAT A MISS! The Nantes center forward gets ahead of Bizot and eliminates him with an oriented control but he then fails to get on target even though the cages were empty.
Del Castillo needs to come out
What a huge other blow in this first act. After Lees-Melou, Del Castillo was forced to give up his place before returning to the locker room. Pereira Lage replaces him.
What acceleration from Abline!!
The former Rennais had done everything except conclude! He plays two opponents before trying his luck but Bizot comes out and hinders Abline.
Camara misses its transmission
There is imprecision in the passes attempted by Mahdi Camara since the start of the match. A new transmission to Magnetti who had planned is missing.
Del Castillo hit
The Brestois will, perhaps, lose a new strong element in this meeting since Romain Del Castillo is limping. It would be a new blow after the early exit of Lees-Melou.
Mounié wins with a header
The Brest striker is in the center and takes the best of the aerial game but his header is too axial and does not worry Alban Lafont.
Cömert pushes back for a corner
Satriano had carried out a nice control on the coat rack but Cömert quickly intervened and conceded a corner.
The pretty Brest movement
Eric Roy’s players play very good football and this combination is concluded by Camara. The strike from the Brest midfielder flees Lafont’s top corner.
Kadewere unscrews
The former Lyonnais gets into a striking position but completely misses his attempt.
Lafont pushes back
The Nantes goalkeeper somehow repels the cross from the right by Romain Del Castillo.
It’s over for Lees-Melou
With his head down, Pierre Lees-Melou has to leave his teammates earlier than expected due to a lingering injury. Jonas Martin replaces him in midfield.
Lees-Melou is embarrassed
It’s a big blow for the Brestois but Pierre Lees-Melou still has the after-effects of his injury contracted last week. He stays on the lawn but is clearly bothered.
Pallois unscrews
On the free kick which follows Locko’s foul, Pallois is alone at the far post but his attempt is wide.
Locko late and warned
The young French full-back is well behind Marcus Coco who seems to be suffering. This will give a dangerous free kick for the Canaries.
Camara does not fit
The Brest midfielder rises highest on an off-center free kick but cannot correctly adjust his header.
A verbal reprimand for Del Castillo
The former Rennais commits a foul on Abline and is verbally warned by Clément Turpin.
Traoré is not accompanied
The Nantes winger tried to find a partner in the center but none of his teammates had thrown themselves into the area.
What intervention from Brassier
This start to the meeting is particularly pleasant to follow. The two teams do not calculate and the high class gestures follow one another like this defensive backheel from Brassier.
Camara lacks precision
After sublime work from Del Castillo, Satriano shifts Camara who misses his cross. Lafont can intervene.
Locko’s little bridge
The Brest full-back had an impressive start to the game. After his powerful strike which worried Lafont, he has just put a sublime little bridge over Coco.
Nantes suffers
The Brestois are in the process of hurting the Nantes residents very badly, who bend but do not break at the start of the match.
THE LOCKO MINE!
What speed of execution from the Brest full-back who then strikes powerfully towards the cages but Lafont deflects for a corner.
Camara asks for her hand
The former Stéphanois asked for a whistle after a potential handball from Castelletto but the Cameroonian pushed back with his face.
The big pressure from Brest
Eric Roy’s players settle into the Nantes camp and recover very quickly when they lose the ball.
Chardonnet’s good tackle
The Brest captain does not hesitate to tackle Kadewere at the feet. Key to follow for the Canaries.
A first overflow
The club’s top scorer, Romain Del Castillo, makes the difference on the right side and crosses to the near post but Nicolas Pallois returns.
An important result for Nantes
The kick-off was given when Metz lost in the last minutes on home soil against Rennes (2-3). In the event of a victory this evening, the Canaries would almost officially be saved.
Let’s go !
Clément Turpin kicks off this meeting on the 32nd day of Ligue 1! Brest is aiming for the Champions League while Nantes is fighting to maintain it.
Kick-off is approaching
The two teams are preparing to return to the pitch at the Francis-Le-Blé stadium to play this match on the 32nd day of Ligue 1.
The stat that can scare Brest
If on paper the Brestois are favorites, the receptions of Nantes by the Bretons do not often bode well. Since the turn of the century, Brest has only won one of its six home games against FC Nantes.
Nantes succeeds well away
The Canaries have been more comfortable away from home since the start of the season and this has been confirmed in Nantes’ latest outings.
Antoine Kombouaré’s team have lost only one of their last seven trips to the top flight.
Brest remains a resounding success
The Bretons won on the last day of Ligue 1 after one of the matches of the year. Brest won 5-4 against neighboring Rennes.
With this result, Eric Roy’s men have ensured that they will compete in a European competition next season for the first time in their history.
The eleven of Brest
Bizot – Lala, Chardonnet, Brassier, Locko – Lees-Melou, Camara, Magnetti – Del Castillo, Mounié, Satriano
Two teams with opposing objectives
If Brest is going to compete in a European Cup next season, Eric Roy’s men can still believe in the Champions League. With 56 points, the Bretons remain one unit ahead of Lille, 4th.
In the second part of the table, Nantes (14th) maintains a three-point margin over Metz, the barrage, but is not yet mathematically saved with three days to go.
