25.02.21 / 16:00
Nimes defeated Lorient 1-0 in France’s Ligue 1 fixture on Wednesday to move swap places with Lorient on the table and move out of the relegation zone. Striker Renaud Ripart’s late penalty made it a reality for struggling Nimes this season and continue on their third back-to-back win and keep a clean sheet as well to climb into 17th place on the table after being 19th before they entered the match. Ripart netted in an empty goal after the goalkeeper went the other way in the 88th minute to score the rebound from Lorient defender.
Nimes midfielder Haris Duljevic missed on a chance to get his team ahead in the first while Lorient defender Julien Laporte failed to hit the goal from 25 meters away.
