And 4 for Ganago
Lens is not joking at the start of the season and did not come to laugh this Sunday in Nîmes. From the 6th minute, a first chill chills the supporters present at the Costières stadium. At 25 meters, Kakuta kicks a free kick that comes to die on the bar Reynet.
In the process, Clauss tries a powerful volley from the left repelled by the Nîmes goalkeeper for a corner (8th). The tone is set ! The opportunities accumulate for the Blood and Gold. Upon receipt of a deviation from Ganago, Sotoca, well placed in the area, instinctively resumes but his attempt grazes the crossbar of Reynet (30th).
By dint of pushing, the RC Lens finds the fault. Kakuta perfectly serves Ganago a few meters from the Nîmes cages: the Cameroonian deceives the opposing goalkeeper with a flat foot (34th). Security. That’s 4 goals in 5 matches for the Lens center forward.

The Crocodiles didn’t go far from the equalizer just before half-time. After a mess in the defense, Nolan Roux fails to recover the leather but Clauss releases him on the wire (45th). 1-0 at the break for the Artesians.
Hard blow from the return of the locker room for the Blood and Gold. In a trivial situation, Ganago, the lensois serial scorer, slams behind the thigh and must give way to Simon Banza (54th). He joined an already well-stocked infirmary at La Gaillette.
Ferhat equalizes
Lens accuses the blow and the Nîmes revolt. On a nice low cross from Roux, Ripart throws himself but his crampons are not big enough to push the ball into the net of Leca (62nd). The locals are more and more dangerous but they come up against an impassable Loïc Badé.
Nîmes attacks but necessarily leaves space behind his back. Banza took advantage of it even if his heavy strike flew into the spans of Costières (77th). The station wagon was not far away! Like a real crocodile, the Nîmes do not let go of their prey.
After a rush on the left, Ripart crosses at the penalty spot for Ferhat who lines up Leca (87th). The locals come back and equalize in the money time! The Lensois deserved better than a draw but they will have to be content. RC Lens is 5th with 10 points on the clock.
