Rivals Nice and Monaco neutralized each other (2-2), Sunday during a 6th day of Ligue 1 marked by the awakening of Nantes in Angers (4-1), while awaiting the first steps at home of Lionel Messi as a Parisian , against Lyon (8:45 p.m.).

- The regrets for Nice -

Unbeaten since the start of the season (with one game less), the Aiglons missed the opportunity to fly higher: the draw - disputed behind closed doors following the incidents of the match against OM - conceded against the ASM deprived them of the podium.

The Nice (4th, 10 pts) had a match point, but Amine Gouiri sent his penalty close (82).

Enough to leave some regrets to the teammates of Andy Delort, author of his first goal in his new colors.

The Monegasques, for their part, are reassured, after a difficult start to the season, in particular their striker Wissam Ben Yedder, who has finally unlocked his Championship goal counter.

- The derby for Nantes -

Beaten in the last three days, Nantes has recovered on the ground of its neighbor Angers.

The alarm clock rang loudly, with two goals scored in the first six minutes.

Randal Kolo Muani and Ludovic Blas gave this victory the air of an offensive festival.

The FCN (7 pts) leaves the bottom of the ranking.

Unbeaten so far, the SCO, 3rd (11 pts) before the weekend, risks losing its place on the podium, if Marseille (5th, 10 pts) does not lose against Rennes (5:00 p.m.).

Clermont almost knew his first setback of the season, like the Angevins.

Indeed, Brest opened the scoring (52) two minutes after Johan Gastien's red card.

But, reduced to 10 against 11, the Auvergne equalized by Elbasan Rashani (65).

This point allows them to temporarily take 6th place (9 pts).

Montpellier achieved the same feat in Troyes (1-1), Téji Savanier scoring the goal of 1-1 (87th) while his team was reduced to 10.

The Hérault (8th, 8 pts) are maintained in the first half of the classification.

Reims and Lorient parted back to back (0-0).

- Lens-Lille: the continuation Monday -

The North derby between Lens and Lille, won on the ground by the Sang et Or (1-0), continues on the side of the authorities.

The League (LFP) announced Sunday morning that the disciplinary committee would meet on Monday, after the half-time violence between supporters of the two teams, which delayed the start of the second period by thirty minutes.

This can place the case under investigation, and decide on precautionary measures, such as the (total or partial) closure of the Bollaert-Delelis stadium.
