Strasbourg's fall in Ligue 1 continues as they lost 1-0 to Nantes on Saturday evening. The result was a blow for Strasbourg, who were hoping to maintain their position in the top half of the table.
Nantes took the lead early on through a goal from Florian Thauvin, who scored his first league goal of the season. Strasbourg struggled to create any clear-cut chances and were unable to find a way back into the game.
The loss means that Strasbourg now sit just one place above the relegation zone in the table, and it looks like they will have to fight hard to avoid being relegated at the end of the season. However, there is still hope for them if they can pick up some victories in the remaining games of the season.
For Nantes, the win was a big boost to their hopes of qualifying for Europe next season. They finished second in Group H of the Europa League last season, but missed out on qualification due to a poor run of form towards the end of the campaign.
Overall, it was another tough day for Strasbourg, who will be looking to bounce back in their next match against Rennes on Wednesday night. Meanwhile, Nantes will continue to push for a place in Europe, knowing that every point is important in their quest to secure their spot in the competition.
