What if the Canaries offered us one of the greatest exploits in the history of French football? Well, after all, it will be a question of eliminating a modest 9th in Serie A in round trip. We are obviously trolling (you must be used to 20 minutes), because first of all Juventus remains a European giant, and it was still in the title race before being hit a month ago by this famous sanction of 15 points withdrawn for accounting fraud ( hello Arthur and Pjanic). In a week, Nantes supporters will have the chance to see players of the caliber of Di Maria and Vlahovic evolve at Beaujoire, during a 16th final of the Europa League 100% bonus. It was indeed not really planned for the program of the winner of the last Coupe de France, above all in the midst of the battle to stay in Ligue 1 at the end of the season. For FC Nantes, now somewhat sheltered in the league (13th with 10 points ahead of the red zone), the idea will be to still be able to qualify for the round of 16 by Thursday next. It will therefore go through a big performance this Thursday (9 p.m.), for the first leg in Turin. Note that in addition to Quentin Merlin, long-time injured, Antoine Kombouaré will not be able to line up either Andy Delort (injured) tonight, as well as Ignatius Ganago, bereaved by the death of his 5-year-old daughter. Come on, we can’t wait to see you again to make you live this match.
“Join us here from 8:30 p.m. to experience the pre-match, before a kick-off at 9 p.m. for this seemingly unbalanced round of 16 Europa League.
