Standout star hauls Nice back with razor-sharp leveller | OneFootball

Elye Wahi equalised in the 44th minute with a precise right-footed finish, as Nice drew 1-1 with Le Mans.

Wahi timed his break perfectly onto Sofiane Diop's through ball and slid it in from a tight angle to the bottom-right corner (44.). The run split the visitors' back line and changed the feel of the contest before the interval.

After the restart he remained a threat, seeing a close-range strike blocked from the centre of the box as Le Mans retreated towards their area (47.).

The forward finished with two attempts, six touches in the box and four fouls won, underlining how he constantly asked questions. He also completed eight passes in the final third, helping Nice sustain territory in advanced areas.

Because Les Aiglons kept finding him down the right channel, his repeated runs in behind stretched Le Mans, even when he was caught offside twice, and forced deeper starting positions that eased pressure on the hosts' build-up.

Les Aiglons rise from 17th to 15th and visit Auxerre next. Le Mans drop from 13th to 14th and host Lens next.
