LIVE – Ferencváros-Nice: the Aiglons without a solution in Hungary

As in the first half, Nice is in difficulty on the counterattack. The Hungarian midfielder goes 70 meters alone without being attacked before passing and seeing Rosario tackle perfectly to take the ball out for a corner.

We had seen little of him until now, Evan Guessand switched to the fixed right and dribbled around everyone before hitting between four players. His shot is well diverted and goes over.

Nice kicks off this second half.

This time Boga comes into play instead of Diop.

It’s the break in Budapest, the Aiglons are not there at all and are logically trailing at the break.

Nice suffers until the end, on another slip from Clauss to the right, the Malian recovers a good ball full axis and tries from the left. fortunately his shot misses the target.

As since the start of this meeting, the Hungarians are formidable on the counterattack. After a Nice corner ended with a missed shot from Clauss, Ferencvaros quickly moved forward. Abu Fani found himself at the conclusion to strike, Bulka made a good save.

Second warning for a Nice defender, this time it’s Abdelmonem for a challenge. He demanded a penalty.

With the interruption caused by Diop’s head injury, the referee grants 5 minutes of added time.

Jonathan Clauss receives a good ball in the area but mishandles it. The tricolor attempts a deflection but the goalkeeper sticks his foot out well to put it in for a corner.

Kady took this free kick well, Bulka had to work to push it away. The ball was taken directly by Varga but blocked for a corner by the defense.

Again on the other hand, Nice is totally taken. Bombito is forced to make a mistake to stop Zachariassen, he is logically warned and the Hungarians have another good free kick.

The eagles hold the ball more but do nothing with it. Too many technical inaccuracies prevent them from planning ahead.

Nice had a series of good sequences in the last Hungarian meters without offering themselves any clear chances but when they lost the ball Ferencvaros quickly moved forward. With a deep ball, Alexandre Mendy should not have made a mistake with his header. Fortunately the Aiglons defender was lightly pushed behind his back by Zachariassen, the referee whistled a foul.

In a twist, Diop finally returns to the pitch with quite a headband on his forehead. Jérémie Boga has put his jacket back on and continues to warm up.

Bloodied, the unfortunate Sofiane Diop will give way to Jérémie Boga, Guessand will move to the right. The former Monegasque, however, wanted to continue the game. Franck Haise took advantage of this downtime to give instructions to several of his players.

The clash between the two Nice players almost makes us forget that Barnabas Varga took the first warning of the match for a stroller on Rosario.

From the head, the two teammates Rosario and Diop do not understand each other and make a violent front against front. Sofiane Diop is on the ground bleeding.

On a nice movement on the right side initiated by Boudaoui and Clauss, the Hungarian defense is destabilized. The French international’s low cross is taken by Diop with first intention, goalkeeper Dibusz pushes it away with his stomach.

Finally, on a nice Nice sequence, Mendy concluded it by taking a cross cleared by the Ferencvaros defense. But his unscrewed shot completely misses the target.

A failed restart from Bulka offers new ammunition to the very playful Hungarians. Their number 10 Kady tries a curl which passes to the left of the Pole’s goals.

Traoré is formidable on his right side, another great breakthrough from the Malian which ends with a missed cross which turns into a shot. Bulka is forced to slam the ball away for a corner.

The first good sequences are clearly for the Hungarians, Traoré still on the right attempts a cross which Antoine Mendy pushes back with difficulty into touch.

The first situation came from the Hungarians, Traoré saw an opening on the right to realign and the Malian tried his luck from afar. His shot is too crushed, Bulka catches it easily.

Uncertainty on the scoresheet, Evan Guessand capable of playing on the entire front of the attack starts well in the right lane. It’s Sofiane Diop who is on the right but the two players will surely swap during the match.

If Ferencvaros’ 11 is mainly made up of players from the Hungarian championships, one player is very familiar with Ligue 2.

Starting in the midfield, Ibrahim Cissé is an indisputable player at the club. He will face Nice. The 28-year-old French midfielder notably passed through Angers, Paris FC, Dunkirk and Caen more recently, which he left in 2021 to join the Hungarian club.

On his lawn in Hungary, the atmosphere will be hot in Budapest. Ferencvaros is leader of its championship, however in the Europa League, the players coached by Pascal Jansen are 31st just behind Nice with no points. The fault of two 2-1 defeats against Anderlecht and Tottenham.

This is the first time that Nice faces a Hungarian opponent in the European Cup.

Not spared by the calendar, the Niçois started their Europa League with two big chunks. Real Sociedad during the first day, a meeting where the eagles took a point (1-1) and Lazio where they lost (1-4). OGC Nice therefore ranks 30th out of 36 at the start of this day, a victory is imperative to get back on track. More worrying, in all competitions, Nice has not won a match since its resounding victory against Saint Etienne on September 20 (8-0).

For this eleven, Franck Haise had to compose without several of his executives. The legendary captain of the Aiglons Dante is injured, same thing for Sanson, Moffi and Ndombele. The eagles will play in a three-way defense with two pistons (Louchet and Clauss). At the forefront, Laborde is lined up to play his first minutes in the Europa League this season. Same thing for the axial Antoine Mendy and Mohamed Abdelmonem.

Good evening everyone and welcome to this live commentary on lefigaro.fr.
