Nantes•AttackerParis secured a hard-fought 2-1 victory at Nantes in a feisty encounter that saw five yellow cards and an early tactical reshuffle from the hosts. Ilan Kebbal's early opener put the visitors in control, but Nantes responded through Matthis Abline's equalizer just after the break. The match turned on Luca Koleosho's impact, the substitute scoring what proved to be the winner with 12 minutes remaining. This crucial three points helps Paris distance themselves from the relegation-threatened Nantes, who remain in a precarious position near the bottom of Ligue 1.
Two clubs deep in relegation trouble clash as Nantes (16th, 14 pts) host Paris FC (15th, 16 pts) in a must-win encounter. With both sides struggling for form and just two points separating them, every point is crucial in this survival battle.
