On fire for a month, FC Nantes suffered a setback on Saturday evening on the lawn of Troyes, where Estac, however poorly ranked, won 1-0.

For the Canaries, this is the first defeat for six games.

It is also a bad operation in the race for a possible place in the European Cup.

“The first half is not good at all and when we start a match like we did today, we cannot expect much, reacts, disappointed, the Nantes coach Antoine Kombouaré.

Logically, Troyes took the advantage and even if we pushed in the second half, the most important thing in football is to score.

We could have played three hours without scoring.

It's a game you have to forget.

“We were inside from the start, in the duels we had a hard time existing, we had a hard time putting the game down,” confirms, annoyed, defender Denis Appiah.

Pallois and Girotto hit in the knee

Contrary to usual, Kolo Muani, Blas and Simon never really created any danger.

And as if that weren't enough, FC Nantes lost two key players who were injured on Saturday evening: Nicolas Pallois and Andrei Girotto.

Both are already uncertain for the next meeting next Saturday against Lille, a direct opponent for Europe.

"Both have sprained knees, that's what's annoying tonight," laments Antoine Kombouaré.

Maybe there was a bit of an emotional lift after our last big games.

It could happen.
