The hope was slim but it persisted. Reality was different, and the Nice team will not be among the 8 teams qualified for the championship’s final phase.
Moreover, with a negative streak of 5 games, how could things have turned out differently? What a waste on the part of Stan Sutor’s players who see their efforts reduced to nothing, and what a disappointment for the fans.
The match was expected to be important for both clubs. Well, the game turned out to be crazy on the Jean Bouin side with this Bordeaux victory (5-4 in overtime)! While both teams couldn’t find the net in the first period, the goals came pouring in during the second period.
And in this thrilling period, it was the Eagles who took the lead, leading 4-3 with 20 minutes left before the final whistle.
This is when Kevin Spinozzi comes into play. He equalizes and offers overtime to the Bordeaux team. What’s more? The Canadian even scores the winning goal for the Boxers, securing their spot in the playoffs.
