Ligue 2 (6th day). AS Nancy-Lorraine escapes the worst in Pau

ASNL came close to the disaster scenario this Saturday in Béarn. Because we dare not imagine the devastating consequences that a setback could have had in this promoted Pau of great weakness, never dangerous, but nevertheless very close to winning his first victory of the season against an ASNL loyal to herself.

That is to say ? Well a solid team from the rear, not flamboyant in the game, but superior, controlling the game and obtaining the only opportunities for a real match of poorly classified… Only here, the ASNL was nevertheless found in the mess. By doing it alone. This time through an eviction.

The match sheet

Akichi expelled and Karamoko against his camp!

Everything changed after half an hour of play. Late, Akichi awkwardly came to tackle the ex-Messin Sabaly. A dangerous gesture sanctioned by a red card by Mr. Gaillouste (31st), much more intransigent than had been Romain Delpech a week earlier with Le Havre Ben Mohammed. A gift that fell from the sky for weak Palois, until then completely harmless.

Eleven against ten, the Béarnais have finally found some space to approach the surface of Sourzac. As on this shift which benefited Scaramozzino, whose center was deflected into its own goal by Karamoko (1-0, 41st). After the awkwardness, the bad luck. The pompom!

Biron’s equalization invalidated

A rather unlikely scenario. Because Pau had therefore shown nothing. Conversely, Bertrand had seen his strike countered in extremis (15th) then Philippe, tenured at the top and ideally served by Bassi, had inherited a golden opportunity. But he had not framed his recovery of the head (23rd).

To top it off, ASNL was then denied a goal in added time. Biron had however well sprung at the far post on a free kick from Bassi deflected by Philippe. But the equalizer had been invalidated for an offside difficult to confirm on slow motion… The total!

A small miracle signed Barka

There were 45 minutes left in the ASNL to return. A not insurmountable goal given the heaviness of the Pyrenean defense. But in spite of their efforts and a certain grip on the waiting Palois, the Nancyians had the greatest difficulty in proving themselves dangerous. So much so that with the exception of a duel won with Biron and a long-range strike from Bassi that came close to his post, Olliero, the Palois goalkeeper, spent a fairly quiet second half in his cage.

Until the 86th minute and the moment chosen by Triboulet to shift Barka at the entrance to the area, whose curled shot hit home (1-1). A small miracle… far from being undeserved considering the scenario and the attitude of Palois punished for not having tried to carry the blow. As a result, a big sigh of relief for the Nancy residents who are virtually relegated to a good part of the evening …
