For its first campaign in the Champions League, Saint-Nazaire gets some fresh air

This season, Saint-Nazaire is broadening its horizons. The Champions League, a gift left by the team crowned French champions on April 28, will take the Nazairians this week to Ankara, the Turkish capital, where they arrived Monday evening after a stopover in Vienna, Austria. Faced with Halkbank, quarter-finalist last season, as well as against Perugia, which they will host next Tuesday, the French champions will look like little thumbs this Wednesday (4 p.m. in France).
