00:00After today, it's to be safe. It's impossible for Franger, we're only 30, then we go to 33, and we'll have 28, even if they used to be a 5 point difference, but if not...
00:18A crunch relegation battle in the west of France gets underway.
00:22We've come across boys who are playing for their future.
00:25That was Cambora's reason that they haven't perhaps got more points.
00:30Angers playing for their future today.
00:32Here's Simon, the backflip, here's a real chance for Louis Leroux.
00:37Bien-Saint-Anse, great run from Moses, that's what he's good at.
00:43Quite enough on that from Louis Leroux.
00:47Bright start from the Canaries in yellow and green as Anand goes down.
00:55Going to swing this one in, Raul Isola, it's headed on.
00:58And Nantes just about cleared their lines, but it's going to be a corner.
01:02Some Argentine flags, remember, still plenty of emotion for Emiliano Sala, who tragically died in an airline accident.
01:24That's over on that, the big man.
01:29Swung in from Zinedine Fairhat, it's a good delivery too.
01:33For Angers, so not teams who have possession and shots, but they need the points today.
01:42Angers looking for a first win here since 2019, but they have defending to do.
01:48Nicely done from Abeline.
01:53Switching to this near-hand side, Killevela.
01:57Here's Moses Simon.
02:01Saint-Anse, whoops it in for the first time.
02:05LePaul.
02:08LePaul wants it back, this communication.
02:11She's better from Nantes.
02:13We want a win today to seal survival.
02:18Again, the destination is Moses Simon.
02:22Simon's cross and the header over from Matisse Abeline.
02:29Moses Simon, a quick look up.
02:31Cross was a good one, the header just too high.
02:33And a warning for Angers' corner flag, but it's going to be knocked in by Zinedine Fairhat.
02:46Fairhat.
02:48Again, Kamara's there.
02:58We go again with another corner.
03:00No shortage of corners so far.
03:01Osmond Kamara, 1m 97 of him, looks to get to that one.
03:12He's headed over.
03:14LePaul.
03:16Nice angle to have a look at it.
03:17Did pretty well to get a goal towards LePaul.
03:20Sliding in and just the boots going on top of Saint-Anse's foot.
03:24It will be painful.
03:26Off goes Fairhat.
03:28Tragically died in a road traffic accident.
03:30Here is Esteban Laporte outside of the boot.
03:40That's a good ball too.
03:44Kemalovina can't get to that one.
03:451-0 here the last time these two teams met.
03:57The result that kept Nantes up.
03:59Memorable night that was.
04:01End of the 2022-23 season.
04:04Angers down.
04:06Came back up.
04:08Arcus.
04:12Swings it in.
04:14Abdelhi!
04:16Lopez was beaten.
04:18Worth a go and just wide.
04:20A break through in this first half.
04:32It's been edgy stuff.
04:45A minute to play.
04:46Nantes 0, Angers 0 in this derby in the west of France.
04:49Relegation scrap.
04:51Kamara.
04:53Two teams who for the moment are both safe.
04:55But are we just.
04:58To get a win today just to seal the deal and take a lot of pressure off them.
05:02Just two matches to go remember.
05:04Cookle.
05:05It's come out to Collins Arcus.
05:06Arcus with a bit of space.
05:07Arcus across.
05:08And it's screwed wide.
05:09What a real chance there.
05:10Arcus with plenty of space.
05:11Arcus with plenty of space.
05:12Arcus with a swing.
05:14That is the end of the first half.
05:15Collins, Arcus, Arcus with a bit of space, Arcus across and it's screwed wide, what a
05:22real chance there, Arcus with plenty of space, came to Raul Isowa who had a swing, he put
05:32the pen on, that is the end of the first half and not fans are not happy, they need to leave
05:43the playoff, 0-0 at half time in this crunch relegation battle, not hitting the post in that first
05:54half, Angers with a couple of half chances, 45 vital minutes ahead of us, plenty of confidence
06:02the team in white, the ball back bear, in the route, doing the job, another youngster,
06:13Kiddivella, more experience, not midfield, Amiens, Castelletto, Castelletto gets it back just
06:23about, Amiens wants the ball, has it, plays up the cross, thinks again, now does get the cross
06:34in but dealt with again, visiting back four, early stages, this second half, they're not
06:45fans in full voice, will they get a goal today, one win in their last five, nil-nil draw last
06:54week, it's another packed house, Cullen Zarkas, it's inside, is this going to be a chance for
07:08Abdelhi, and Jim Alavina has put it away for the visitors, Jim Alavina the substitute sends
07:17the visiting fans wild, what a time to get your first goal of the season, Jim Alavina didn't
07:26hesitate, you can see what it means to those Angers fans and players, it's the first goal
07:32of the season for Alavina, Lopez beaten, and Nonta in trouble, in this big relegation battle,
07:41Jim Alavina, and those, they're currently behind Abdelhi, Abdelhi, it's cut back, Kirivella,
07:50it's a brilliant save from Fafana, Pedro Kirivella, revving away to his right, and another good
07:58save from an emerging goalkeeper, great stop, Kirivella so close, Fafana, something to do
08:11in the second half, because Nont cannot afford to lose this one, Fafana holds on to it, big
08:23big save from Jaya Fafana, expects a big Nont charge in the last 25 or so minutes, they cannot
08:35afford to lose this one, because if La Havre get anything at all, that's all set up, they'll
08:42be in trouble, Kirivella,
08:44Coughlin,
08:54here comes Castelletto, Coughlin wide, Cotza the sub, and that's a good save, got a good
09:08shot on there, into the corner, and again Jaya Fafana, up to the task, Tabibu screaming to
09:23it on the right hand side, it goes over to Simon, a last chance, headed out from Kamara,
09:30who's been a rock on his first appearance today, Coughlin, into the danger area, into the arms
09:36of Fafana, and that might be the last chance, and the visiting bench, their arms are up, it's
09:45a huge win for LJ.
