Moving to the bottom of the standings seemed easy on paper. On arrival, it is a heavy defeat. Niort was beaten 4-1 at Pau, this Saturday, October 24.
The chamois had however opened the scoring quickly by Doukansy in the 13th. But Paro’s red card from the twentieth minute of play complicated things. A quarter of an hour later, the Palois equalized, then took the advantage just before the break. Niort would never come back.
“We had a good start to the match, it’s true. We score, we are good, analyzes the Niortais milieu, Olivier Kemen. But then we don’t put what we usually put on the feedback, on the impact. Today it’s a big collective defeat. “
After this setback, the chamois descend to 4th place in the Ligue 2 standings, tied on points with Caen and Troyes, but ahead, Paris FC takes the lead, with five points ahead of its pursuers.
The Niortais will have the opportunity to redeem themselves next Saturday at home against Grenoble.
