Largely dominated, Nantes managed to contain Toulouse (0-0), this Sunday, on behalf of the 35th day of Ligue 1.
Two weeks after the final of the Coupe de France won Saint-Denis, the Toulouse showed a psychological ascendancy with a ball possession of 85% after a quarter of an hour. A wide technical domination but few opportunities for the locals, close to being surprised twice by Blas, who touched the bar with a tight shot. The only real clear opportunity of a first act played at a slow pace despite some rough contact, like a very strong tackle from Castelletto on Spierings.
After the break, Toulouse outrageously dominated the debates. Dallinga also warmed the gloves of a much more inspired Lafont than at the Stade de France. Torn between their desire to score and that of not being surprised, the Canaries trembled in the face of the repeated assaults of their hosts. They could count on an exceptional return from Pallois to remove a Dallinga goal ball at the very end of the game. A small point that could do Nantes good in the race to maintain even if the end of the tunnel is still very far.
