Thurama has a good quality of crosses from the left
After his dice pass, another ball well rolled up with the right foot. It is pushed back for a corner by a defender, but the corner kick does nothing.
Here we go again !
No change at the break! 45 minutes to score the second goal and see the Conference League groups without overtime.
It’s the break ! Nice leads 1-0 and has caught up!
After the defeat by the same score in the first leg, the Aiglons returned to equality in the two games thanks to a header from Claude-Maurice. We will have to do as well, and even dominate even more, in the second period!

Attention on corner!
Saborit misses his kickback at the far post after a deflection at the first.
There will be 4 minutes of additional time
The referee’s change of shoes took a bit of time.
Ilie can’t cross or shoot
The Romanian had however passed on his left side. It shows at least that the Aiglons are getting better and better, after returning to 1-1 on aggregate (1-0 this Thursday).
Delort’s deep calls hurt defense
However, there are not many spaces, but the Algerian international manages to be quite sharp. It will eventually pass!
streak break
He makes the “SUUUUUU” of Ronaldo and leaves the field quietly, escorted by Dante and a steward.
Nice intervention by Dante
Maccabi, very harmless until then, was in the opposing box, but the Nice captain is solid to counter Dante.
Here we go again !
New pair of shoes for the referee.
Change… of shoes for the referee
His is really well perforated, with the sole coming off. Mr. Stegemann returns to the locker room, improvised cool break for the players!
PERETZ SAVED THE MACCABI!
The Israeli goalkeeper had already disgusted Nice in the first leg, and did it again. It’s not on his line this time, but away from it. Delort picks up an ill-fitting back pass and tries to get around Peretz, who comes back hard and counters the shot from a tight angle.
Ramsey causes another corner
Nice chest delivery from Delort for the Welshman, whose shot is blocked by a defender. Go on !
Be careful not to get fooled again
Bitton is found thrown into the box on a cross, but his header goes wide wide.
CLAUDE-MAURICE SET THE RECORDS ON TIME!
FAVRE’S PAYING CHOICE! THE GYM WINGER IS AT THE RECEPTION OF A LONG CENTER BY THURAM. PERETZ GETS CHEATED BY THE FUNNY TRAJECTORY OF THE BALL, WHICH TAPS THE SHOULDER A LITTLE BEFORE ENTERING! 1-0 for Nice, equality on the two matches!
First Game Warning
It is for Kanichowsky, after a fine technical number by Claude-Maurice. The individual quality of Nice must be used for that.
This match is to follow on RMC Sport 1

Favre gives some indications to Ilie
Small notebook and pen during a break because of a downed player. The young Romanian will have an important role tonight.
Thuram’s Percussion Can Make a Difference
This time, it came to nothing (Claude-Maurice not succeeding in his cross in stride), but his long strides can pierce many lines.
It’s hard to find a shot angle
Claude-Maurice tries small supports at the entrance to the surface, but ends up losing the ball. First quarter of an hour that we will qualify as “tactical” (a euphemism generally used for “not very exciting”).
Tel Aviv still wants to trap Nice
The Israelis leave little space to the Aiglons, and try to come out very quickly when they recover the ball. This is generally what we expected.
Nice only French chance in the Conference League
If the OGCN does not pass, our Thursdays will be a little less thrilling since there will be no French club in the group stage (before any transfers from the Europa League).
The first corner is for Nice
The ball, cleared by the defense, returns to Claude-Maurice who attempts an unbalanced volley from a distance which passes over.
Nice formalizes the arrival of Nicolas Pépé
The Arsenal winger arrives on loan, it has been confirmed… seconds before kick-off!
Let’s go !
Kick off given by Maccabi Tel Aviv!

Both teams enter the field
The supporters present try to set the mood with a “Who does not jump is not Nice!” (Hey)
Compo of Maccabi Tel Aviv: the scorer of the first leg
Perica was a substitute in the first leg, before emerging from the bench to score. He takes the place in the eleven of the experienced Zahavi, who returned this summer from PSV Eindhoven.
Maccabi: Peretz – Bitton, Yeini, Saborit – Geraldes, Kanichowsky, Glazer, Golasa, Davdzada – Perica, Jovanovic.
Replacements: Tenenbaum, Nachmias, Zahavi, van Overeem, Kuwas, Parfait, Rikan, Kandil, Piven, Gloukh, Peretz, Hozez.
We know the Champions League draw
>> PSG and OM are doing well with groups that are affordable on paper
Compo de Nice: Claude-Maurice and Ilie in surprises
It is generally the eleven that emerged this start of the season, with Stengs and Gouiri replaced by Claude-Maurice and Ilie. We’ll see who is in which lane.
Nice: Schmeichel – Atal, Todibo, Dante, Bard – Thuram, Lemina – Claude-Maurice, Ramsey, Ilie – Delort.
Replacements: Bulka, Boulhendi, Mendy, Daniliuc, Lotomba, Viti, Beka Beka, Rosario, Stengs, Brahimi, Bouanani, Gouiri.
Nice must necessarily win
Beaten 1-0 in the first leg in Israel, the Aiglons must necessarily win tonight to participate in the group stage of the Europa League Conference.
Not so obvious: OGC Nice has still not won a single match this season (2 draws and 1 defeat in Ligue 1, plus the poor first leg result).
