Angers beats struggling Nantes 4-1 in French league
PARIS (AP) --- Angers moved into the top half of the French league with a 4-1
home win over struggling Nantes on Friday.
The visitor came into the game with a new coach after Ahmed Kantari replaced
Lus Castro on Thursday but there was no bump for a side that has now gone
seven games without a win in Ligue 1.
Himad Abdelli slotted home the opener from the penalty spot for Angers after 17
minutes and Sidiki Cherif added a second on the hour mark.
Nantes harbored hopes of a comeback when Fabien Centonze reduced the deficit to
one goal after 81 minutes.
But Angers' Cameroon striker Harouna Djibirin made it 3-1 with five minutes
remaining and Lilian Raolisoa added a fourth with a solo effort in stoppage
time.
The result leaves Nantes second from bottom with 11 points from 16 games.
Angers earned a fourth win in five league games and climbed into ninth place in
the 18-team league, above Toulouse and Brest.
