Despite the draw (2-2), there was a winning side and another losing side this Sunday in Nice. The Aiglons, led by Franck Haise and Sofiane Diop, had the smile of winners.
There are scenarios during which nothing smiles on us. This was the case this Sunday for LOSC, who hit the posts three times and saw their opponent, OGC Nice, score in the last seconds on an attempt which hit the post then ended up in the back of the net (90+6 ′). This achievement awakened an entire stadium and allowed Franck Haise to exult:
“To score in the 96th minute, like that, it’s a great emotion. I was very happy for the players, for everyone at the club, to get this point and this draw against a very good Lille team.he said on DAZN. The goal is miraculous because it comes very late, but throughout the match both teams had big chances.specified the technician at a press conference a few moments earlier.
“We had difficulty putting real pressure on against this team which is very well established. We changed the system during the break, because we had a lot of difficulty moving forward, pushing our centers to be coordinated. We still have a lot of work to do on this, especially against opponents who have control and habits. We had a lot of difficulty recovering the balloons. Things had to changeexplained Franck Haise. What I like is that my team didn’t give up and showed a lot of character. I reviewed our chances, the statistics. Even if we have a significant weak moment and Lille a big strong moment in the first period, over the whole match, even if we score in the last moments with great success, the draw is quite logical.he concluded this Sunday, with a big smile in front of the cameras.
Author of the equalizing goal (56′) and symbol of his coach’s tactical turnaround, Sofiane Diop saw mixed feelings. There is obviously joy, but also this little regret of not having been able to do more: “The words were strong at half-time. We had to show another face. That’s what we did in the second half and it worked out for us at the end. We would have liked to win this match on our highlight. Afterwards, we cannot take away the fact that this Lille team had good chances. We’ll say that’s a good point”he admitted at the final whistle, following the draw recorded by OGC Nice and LOSC (2-2) as part of the eleventh day of Ligue 1.
