Overview

  • Angers won 1-0 at the Allianz Riviera on matchday 15, with Yasin Belkhdim scoring after a Juma Bah error and Nice reduced to 10 men when Tom Louchet was sent off in the 52nd minute.
  • Fewer than 8,000 spectators attended despite 17,630 announced, and Nice players were booed during presentations and when they touched the ball.
  • All Nice players wore shirts bearing the names of Jérémie Boga or Terem Moffi in a show of support as fans jeered throughout.
  • Hundreds of parody posters mimicking Pinder circus ads labeled “Cirque OGC Nice” were pasted around the city, the training center and the stadium.
  • Club leaders Florian Maurice, Fabrice Bocquet and Ineos Sport chief Jean-Claude Blanc observed from the stands, with Bocquet conceding they face a huge task to repair the team and club as Boga and Moffi remain on work stoppage after filing complaints against unknown assailants.
