Nice wastes another bullet

Nice, trailing throughout the second half, wasted another chance to settle for second place in Ligue 1 after drawing at the Stade de la Meinau against Strasbourg (0-0), in their match on matchday 26.

Christophe Galtier’s team overlooked the stumbling block in the previous session of Marseille, defeated by Clermont and with whom they are tied in the table.

But Nice couldn’t beat Strasbourg, which aspires to a European place and this season has its sights set higher.

The team from Nice dominated, leaving a large part of their options when the Brazilian Dante saw the second card and was sent off. The visiting team did not have a good time from that moment. Strasburdo was encouraged and had options to overcome Walter Benítez.

The match ended goalless. Nice can lose second place if Marseille wins on Sunday at Troyes.
