Led 2-1 In the last seconds, Nice was able to snatch a point at the very end of the game against Strasbourg, Saturday evening in Ligue 1 (2-2). A draw in a race for Europe which does not pass for Guéla Doué.
The Strasbourg had not seen him coming. Led on Saturday evening by Nice in the first period by a goal from Melvin Bard (38th), the men of Liam Rosenior reversed the trend at the exit of the locker room thanks to goals blowing on Emegha (51st) then of Amo-Ameyaw (54th). 2-1 to a few seconds from the final whistle, the Alsatians were already winning. It was without counting on the head of Youssouf Ndayishimiye in the last seconds, on a corner drawn by Jonathan Clauss. The Niçois thus torn off the draw (2-2), to the chagrin of the Strasbourg.
“We lacked concentration on the last action and we were punished”
“We fell back because we wanted to block. We put the intensity but we lacked concentration on the last action and we were punished. We have to work on that, the points are precious,” deplored Guéla Doué, defender of the RCSA, in the mixed zone. A frustration shared by his coach, Liam Rosenior. “Obviously it is very frustrating to finish in a draw in this way, but it happens, and I remain very proud of my team,” said the Briton at a press conference.
“We do not doubt. We have confidence in us as since the start of the season, we do what we have to do and we are moving forward. (…) We play all the games to win if we want to where we want to be at the end of the season,” concluded the brother of Désiré Doué after the meeting.
For his part, Franck Haise was smiling at a press conference: “All the players were disappointed not to have won this match, because we felt better than Strasbourg this evening. (…) The fact of equalizing like that is a point that will count”.
Strasbourg, current 5th in Ligue 1, plays a qualifying place in the European Cup next season, in direct confrontation with Nice, two points behind. With this five -day draw from the closing of the championship, the place in European competition of the two teams is not acquired. Lyon, current 7th and has equal points with the Aiglons, could be added to the equation in the event of a victory on the lawn of Auxerre this Sunday evening.
