On the evening the 28th round of the French championship began. In the only match in Nice, the local footballers welcomed the team "Bastia".
Although the hosts were considered favorites of the duel and controlled the ball much longer, they failed to break through the opponents' defense.
Luck smiled on the well-defending team "Bastia" when after almost an hour of play, defender Paul Baysse received a red card for committing a last hope foul.
Just a few minutes later, in the 61st minute, Sadio Diallo delighted his team's fans by converting a great penalty kick. Shortly after, "Bastia" lined up for another set piece, after which Baysse, who had provoked Floyd Ayite earlier, directed the ball into the bottom corner of the goal.
Eventually, the visitors took home a 2-0 victory, temporarily helping them climb to tenth place. Meanwhile, "Nice" could drop as far as seventh from the third position over the weekend.
