At the end of the 31st day of National, Nîmes Olympique offered a great victory over the leader, Red Star, at the Antonins stadium, this Monday April 29 (1-0).

While behind the scenes the Nîmes leaders are active in finding a solution to the appeal filed by Orléans, the players of Adil Hermach showed that it would be necessary to count on them on the pitch to maintain Nîmes Olympique.

Aggressive from the start of the match, putting high pressure which prevented the Red Star team from playing, the Crocos were rewarded by the opening of the score by Camara. Nîmes had numerous opportunities to double the lead but efficiency is still not the strength of Nîmes this year.

Solidarity on the other hand is there, drawing on their last strength like Picouleau coming out with cramps in the 70th, the Crocos closed ranks to hold on against Red Star.

This crucial victory allows Nîmes to take a 3-point lead in the red zone before facing Goal FC on Friday.
