• OGC Nice won 2-0 in Nantes this Sunday thanks to goals from Dolberg and Gouiri.

  • The Canaries, however, displayed an attractive face against one of the contenders for the podium.

At the Beaujoire stadium,

The same attractive copy for the same dotted zero. Two weeks after losing to Lyon (0-1) despite a slew of opportunities, the Canaries did it again this Sunday against Nice. Seven shots on target, more than fifteen attempts, an elusive Simon, a convincing Bukari… But a final 2-0 defeat, materialized in the last quarter of an hour of the match. A “frustrating” and “infuriating” scenario for Sébastien Corchia, FCN right-back.

“It's exactly the same feeling as after Lyon, laments the former Sevillan.

We were there, we had a lot of opportunities.

We put Nice, which is one of the best teams in the championship, in difficulty.

We don't deserve to lose like this.

But we fish in the finish.

"" This defeat hurts.

It looks like the Lyon match but it's even worse since we lose 2-0.

We play well, we show a beautiful face, but the high level is efficiency ”, regrets Antoine Kombouaré, the coach of FC Nantes.

"We must trust our attackers"

If we add the match in Rennes (0-1) on August 22, the Canaries, yet complete in attack, have just chained three consecutive losses without ever having found the fault.

Their last goal dates back to August 15.

“It's a way of the cross, plague Antoine Kombouaré.

You must keep trying.

We must continue to trust our attackers.

We create a lot of situations, we move forward.

This is how we will win.

"

“We must not lower our heads, it will end up paying off,” Sébastien Corchia is also convinced.

The defender, however, addresses a word to the rest of his team: "When we can not win such a match, we should at least not lose".

This Sunday evening, FC Nantes came down to 15th place in the championship.
