If the Niçois Marcin Bulka started on the bench the meeting between Nice and Partizan Belgrade, this Thursday in the Europa League Conference, it is not because his coach Lucien Favre had decided to end the alternation he had. started a week earlier, during Nice-Cologne (1-1), but because the goalkeeper felt sick during the day.
The Pole had symptoms shared by “five, six other players”, explained Favre in a post-match press conference. Absent from the match sheet, Melvin Bard was one of the members of the Nice delegation affected during the day. “A player was in the hospital”, also specified the Swiss, without revealing the identity of the Nice concerned.
