Niort-Toulouse (1-2): The Toulouse leader surprised on the lawn of the Chamois

Leader Toulouse, beaten at Niort (1-2), missed the opportunity on Monday to distance his pursuers in the Ligue 2 standings at the end of the 17th day and only retains a one-point lead over his runner-up Ajaccio, while that the Niortais revive.

From the start of the match, the Toulouse, dominating, put pressure on the Niortaise rearguard, without however finding the fault for lack of lucidity like this big failure of the Japanese winger Onaiwu who, alone in front of the empty goal (22nd) harvested. The Niort goalkeeper had to work in quick succession on attempts by Skyttä (30th) and Onaiwu (31st) to preserve his clean sheet.

The Japanese Onaiwu believed to finally open the scoring, but his header, applied, hit the crossbar (45th). Sébastien Desabre’s men, transfigured at the break, made the difference by Sissoko who, starting on the edge of offside, eliminated his opponent with a subtle hook before unleashing a powerful strike which surprised the goalkeeper Maxime Dupé, whose hand fault was fatal to the TFC (50th).

Conversely, Braat, his alter ego from Niort, multiplied his prowess and distinguished himself again by defeating a point-blank shot from Skyttä (55th). Niort’s realism was to materialize with a goal full of nerve from Zemzemi, whose low shot in the pivot left no chance for Dupé (63rd).

Philippe Montanier’s men reduced the score by Ratao fifteen minutes from the end, his sumptuous strike lodged in the skylight. The Chamois, who had not won at home since the 10th day and a victory over Paris FC (4-1), garnered three crucial points. They jumped 3 places in the standings and are now 9th.
