Two late goals by Amine Gouiri see off Nice into the second spot with a 2-1 triumph over newly-promoted Clermont. After having lost at home against Montpellier before the global window, but Nice cannot afford to lose a match. Clermont succumbed to the fourth loss after the 3-2 misfortune at Saint-Etienne in Round 13. Clermont took a lead early in the match when Florent Ogier headed in a Jason Berthomier free-kick with the aid of a post.

Mohamed Bayo who is Clermont’s top scorer had a good amount of opportunities to score before Nice leveled at 77th minute, when Gouiri scored the first goal of the match, then came back to net the second goal of the match and hand the team a win.
