2024-01-14 15:56:35

Brest continues to impress, Toulouse and Clermont win away

As surprising as ever, the Brestois scored a 4th victory in Ligue 1 at home against Montpellier, and took the opportunity to take Monaco’s place on the podium. Nantes concedes its 4th consecutive defeat, beaten to the wire and outnumbered by Clermont, who are no longer bottom. Metz is now a play-off after its defeat against Toulouse.

Nantes 1-2 Clermont
Metz 0-1 Toulouse
Brest 2-0 Montpellier

BUUUUUT FROM LE DOUARON, 2-0 FOR BREST!!

What a collective goal for Finisterians! Martin backheels and continues his effort on the one-two, before crossing back towards Le Douaron. The latter concludes with a perfect flat foot towards the opposite little net!!

Nantes 1-2 Clermont
Metz 0-1 Toulouse
Brest 2-0 Montpellier

Additional time

5 minutes more in Nantes, 5 in Metz, and 5 in Brest!

BUUUUT D’ALLEVINAH, 2-1 FOR CLERMONT!!

Outnumbered, Nantes can lose everything in the last minutes!! The Auvergnats play well on the counter and Allevinah, on a back pass that Cham lets slip away, deceives Lafont with a little cross shot!!

Nantes 1-2 Clermont
Metz 0-1 Toulouse
Brest 1-0 Montpellier

We were close to the jewel in Metz!!

Ten against eleven, the Messins don’t give up and come close to equalizing on an inspiration from Colin!! On a ball that is poorly pushed back into the axis, the full-back unleashes a pure volley which grazes the top corner of Remains!!

Ndiaye still on parade for Clermont!

Kader Bamba goes there alone with the ball, he advances to the entrance to the area and rolls up. The immense Ndiaye goes quickly to the ground to release the shot after the rebound!

There is damage in Francis-Le Blé

Big clash between Magnetti and Guéguin, shin against shin. The two men remain on the ground, they get up with difficulty.

An update on the scores with just a quarter of an hour to go

Nantes 1-1 Clermont
Metz 0-1 Toulouse
Brest 1-0 Montpellier

Huge double opportunity also in Metz, who hits the mark!!

Traoré first finds the crossbar on a slammed header, before the ball comes back to Mikautadze who attempts a scissors, pushed back on his line by Restes!!

The double opportunity for Brest!!

Counter lightning led by Del Castillo, who shifts Lees Melou into the right tempo. His cross shot was repelled by Bizot, then it was Le Douaron who saw his attempt deflected by an opponent!!

And red card for Nantes Traoré!

What an ugly sole from Bénie Traoré, who walks clumsily on Keita’s ankle which turns roughly… The sanction here too is deserved.

Direct red card for Messin Hérelle!

Very far from his area but in the position of last defender, the Metz defender is caught by Dallinga’s speed and mows him down. The sanction is logical!

Stat’

Toulouse remains in 10 matches without a win in Ligue 1 (5 draws, 5 defeats), its longest drought since its return to the elite in 2022 and the longest currently in L1.

Several changes in Brest

Le Douaron entered in place of Pereira Lage, while Leroy and Kahzri took the places of Akor and Chotard.

Clermont close to breaking!

The Canaries are still as lively as ever since the break, with an 8th shot in 20 minutes. The work of Mollet, with a dry strike that Ndiaye captures with a dive!

The 2-0 was not far away for Brest!!

The people of Brest no longer stop and are close to breaking!! With a tasty pass, Lees-Melou serves Pereira-Lage who presents himself opposite Lecomte. His cross attempt on the ground passes a few millimeters from the post!!

Brest continues to appear threatening

Far free kick taken by Del Castillo near the touchline. His cross is good and Lecomte can’t get out, Mounié wins in the air but doesn’t manage to knock down his attempt.

Brest takes 3rd place

Note that the Finisterians are virtually on the podium in Ligue 1 with this result and this goal from Magnetti. They are now one point ahead of Monaco, 4th.

Bizot ensures for Brest

A long shot from Fayad, who lands on his right foot and rolls over. It’s too focused on the Brest goalkeeper, who catches without worry.

Nantes offers a completely different face!

A new opportunity for the people of Nantes, who returned with big, big intentions. But Mollet sees his shot, deflected, miss.

BUUUUT FROM MAGNETTI, 1-0 FOR BREST!!!

Things are going a thousand miles an hour in this restart, with a new goal, this time at Francis-Le Blé!! Benefiting from good conservation work from Mounié, Camara serves back to Magnetti who magnificently clears Lecomte and finishes with a shot entered with the help of the post!!

Nantes 1-1 Clermont
Metz 0-1 Toulouse
Brest 1-0 Montpellier

BUUUUUT FROM MOLLET, NANTES COMES BACK TO 1-1!!

It won’t take long for the Canaries to get back into the match!! Too easily served by Bénie Traoré, in all the good moves from Nantes today, Mollet has plenty of time to deceive Ndiaye by cutting at the near post!!

Nantes 1-1 Clermont
Metz 0-1 Toulouse
Brest 0-0 Montpellier

Here we go again on the three Ligue 1 grounds!

A change to note in Nantes: Bamba took Chirivella’s place. Gourvennec takes a more offensive option to go for the equalizer. Ferri came on in place of Omeragic for Montpellier.

It’s the break in Nantes, Metz and Brest!

There was a goal on two of the three fields in this animated multiplayer. Toulouse opened the scoring from the penalty spot thanks to Vincent Sierro (12th), while Shamar Nicholson and Clermont surprised Nantes at La Beaujoire (29th), a result which allows them to no longer be bottom for the moment. Blank score in Brest where Steve Mounié was deprived of a goal for a slight offside (23rd).

Nantes 0-1 Clermont
Metz 0-1 Toulouse
Brest 0-0 Montpellier

Additional time

2 more minutes granted to Metz, 2 to Brest and 2 to Nantes. No jealousy in this multi.

And Nantes… demands a new penalty!!

But that still doesn’t smile on Gourvennec’s men, on this situation of Bouttoba’s hand in his own area. The referee watches the action again on video, but he decides not to call a foul!!

Stat’

Nantes have lost 6 of their last 8 Ligue 1 matches (1 win, 1 draw), including the 3 most recent. The Canaries have not suffered 4 defeats in a row in the elite since October-November 2019 (4).

Nantes claims the penalty!

Very authoritarian, even a little clumsy, exit from Ndiaye, who wants to punch but elbows Mollet as he passes. The referee doesn’t whistle anything, to the great dismay of the people of Nantes!

Clermont saved by its goalkeeper!

Trailing, the Nantes residents want to react quickly. Found on a long cross, Chirivella is alone at the far post but his volley from a tight angle is repelled by Ndiaye with his foot at his post!

BUUUUUT NICHOLSON, 0-1 FOR CLERMONT!!

Opportunistic, the Clermont striker extinguishes the Beaujoire!! The Auvergnats pushed forward in a match that was as pleasant as ever and were rewarded after a ball pushed back into the middle by Lafont. Nicholson drags and pierces everyone with a violent strike!!

Nantes 0-1 Clermont
Metz 0-1 Toulouse
Brest 0-0 Montpellier

Goal canceled in Brest!

Shock at Francis-Le Blé, where Mounié’s goal is finally invalidated by the video. There is an offside position at the start of the action, we remain at 0-0.

BUUUUT FROM MOUNIÉ, 1-0 FOR BREST!!!

The Finisterians opened the scoring at Francis-Le Blé, where the home striker deceived Lecomte with a header!! Pereira Lage delivers a perfect cross towards his teammate, who leaves the goalkeeper no chance with a cross header!

Nantes 0-0 Clermont
Metz 0-1 Toulouse
Brest 1-0 Montpellier

Kadewere comes close to the amount!

What a lightning acceleration from Bénie Traoré, who drops everyone off and serves Kadewere. The striker’s shot is deflected by Ndiaye’s foot and goes just wide of the post!

First thrill for Metz and Mikautadze!

The much-anticipated Georgian striker gets his first shot, perfectly served by Sabaly. Mikautadze controls his chest and fails to follow up with the volley!

Disappointing set piece from Clermont

Far free kick played with a three-way combination, but Mollet anticipates well and the Auvergnats waste a great opportunity to put the ball in the Nantes area.

Montpellier loses Coulibaly to injury

The Hérault recruit came out affected. He was replaced by Yeboah, who scored his first goal with Montpellier in the last match in the Coupe de France.

BUUUUUT DE SIERRO, 0-1 FOR TOULOUSE!!

Sierro takes justice into his own hands, the Swiss midfielder wrong-foots Oukidja with a mid-height shot and scores the first goal of this multi!

Nantes 0-0 Clermont
Metz 0-1 Toulouse
Brest 0-0 Montpellier

Penalty for Toulouse!

The first Téfécé offensive is already very bad! Sierro throws himself hard towards the Metz surface, he collapses on contact with Asoro. The referee does not hesitate!

Clermont plans

First against Clermontois, launched to the right towards the twirling Virginius. But Cömert makes a perfect sliding tackle just before entering his area to regain the ball.

Brest is in control

Confident after their last good results, the Brestois are taking matters into their own hands. We know that Eric Roy’s players are performing very well at home this season.

Don’t be shy

Lots of aggressiveness on the side of the Messins, who do not hesitate to go after the Toulouse residents. Mikautadze is already offering calls ahead.

Let’s go on all three grounds!

The 3 p.m. multiplayer kicked off in Nantes, Metz and Brest!

Stat’

Although appearing two places above Toulouse, its opponent in the Ligue 1 ranking (14th v 16th), Opta’s predictive tool estimates that Metz has a 39.7% chance of being directly relegated at the end of the season, compared to 15.5% for Téfécé.

An update on the issues in this multi

> Nantes (13th) hopes to start 2024 on a good footing, after ending the previous year with three defeats in a row in L1. The red lantern Clermont has been seeking the path to success since mid-November.

> The return of Georges Mikautadze gives hope to FC Metz, 14th just two points behind the play-off place and Toulouse (16th), qualified in the round of 16 of the Europa League but unable to win in the Championship for… three and a half months.

> It works well for Brest, however, surprising 4th and on a series of four victories in all competitions. Eric Roy’s players can reach the podium in the event of success against Montpellier (12th), undefeated in their last 3 Ligue 1 matches (1 win, 2 draws).
