Surprise in Villeneuve d’Ascq. After scoring twice in quick succession at the start of the match (12th, 16th), the Stade de Reims players held on and won on the Losc field (1-2) on Tuesday, during the last match of the sixth day of Ligue 1. Benjamin André reignited the suspense at the end of the match, in vain…
The Damary-Nakamura pair did very badly with rapid attacks on Paulo Fonseca’s men. From the 12th minute of play, Mohamed Damary opened the scoring for the Rémois, four minutes before the break goal signed by Keito Nakamura. Despite a few attempts by Rémy Cabella and Edon Zhegrova, the Dogues, stunned, returned to the locker room at half-time under the whistles of the Pierre-Mauroy stadium (0-2 MT).
In the second period, Lille offered nothing until Ivan Cavaleiro came into play in the 64th minute. The Portuguese woke up his teammates with his calls and percussion. Ten minutes from the end of the match, Mastiff captain Benjamin André reduced the score with a header (1-2, 79th). Enough to reignite the suspense and augur a suspenseful end to the match… Except that it didn’t happen. Lille struggled to wrap up the end of the match. Logical defeat (1-2).
Stade de Reims climbs to fifth place in the Ligue 1 standings with this victory, one point behind PSG and Monaco. Losc is in a modest 11th place this Tuesday evening.
