In defeating the bottom-of-the-table Grenoble, the Aiglons have secured their stay among the elite. Although mathematically Nice still needs one more point to officially compete in Ligue 1 next season, sportingly, the ticket seems secured. The Gym is 15th and has 40 points, which is 12 points ahead of the first team in the relegation zone: Le Mans.
It was a difficult but deserved victory, achieved a quarter of an hour before the final whistle thanks to a goal from Emerse Faé. The right-footed shot from number 14 concluded a play initiated by Ben Saada and continued by Anthony Mounier, who performed very well on Saturday night. Earlier, Mouloungui had responded to Akrour in the first half (1-1 at halftime).
Éric Roy has four matches remaining to officially secure a place in Ligue 1. The next appointment is next Sunday in Boulogne.
