Review of the match Metz - Nice:
The Ligue 1 match between Metz and Nice at the Stade Saint-Simforien was a tense contest, with both teams fighting hard for the three points. In the end, Nice won 1-0. At the beginning of the match both teams tried to dominate the pitch. However, in the 14th minute Nice took the lead when Hichem Boudaoui scored. Metz tried to respond but failed to break through the Nice defence. Failure befell the home side in the 21st minute when Kasper Dolberg-Turam received a yellow card, which put him on thin ice for the rest of the match. This caution affected the team's attacking performance and they were never able to equalise in the first half. At the start of the second half, both teams made important substitutions to revitalise the game. In the 46th minute, Nice decided to replace Thuram with Marcel Sanson, hoping to strengthen their midfield. In the 64th minute, Metz followed suit, replacing Pape Djibril Diallo with Cheikh Moussa Sabaly to bring more creativity to the attacking play. The match continued to be an intense battle of wits and tactics.
In the 66th minute, Nice made their second substitution as Terem Moffie came on in place of Evann Hessan. In the 70th minute, Metz responded with two substitutions: Howie Quao and Kevin Van Den Kerkhof came on the pitch. Metz soon made two more substitutions, with Abli Jallow and Joel Asoro coming on in the 70th minute. Mamadou Barda and Gaetan Laborde also came on for Nice in the 78th minute. The substitutions were aimed at giving the game a fresh impetus and finding a decisive moment, but both teams were unable to hit the goalposts. In the 90th minute, Nice made one last substitution, bringing on Jérémy Boga to make a late surge. Metz also made one last substitution, with Aboubakari Claude-Maurice taking the field. However, neither team was able to increase the score and the match ended in a hard-fought 1-0 win for Nice. This match showed the competitive spirit in Ligue 1, with both Metz and Nice giving their best to achieve victory. Hichem Boudaoui's goal was the decisive factor and Nice held on to win the all-important three points.
