Rons are on a four-match unbeaten run following their one-all draw last weekend against Paris
Saint-Germain. That's the first point PSG had dropped all season. Angers are still winless
but have managed two draws since the international break having lost their first three games.
And Rons were immediately on the front foot and 10 minutes in they took the lead.
Kato Nakamura with the goal. The Japanese star in red hot form. That's his third goal in as
many games. He controlled the ball well and beat Fafana with the finish. Angers then immediately
went up the other end from the restart. And Rons needed a crucial intervention from Buta
right in front of Jim Alafina. Rons were looking really lively going forward.
Martial Manezzi should have done better. Rons slicing apart the Angers defense.
It really was one-way traffic in the first half. And when Uma Diakite's effort was saved,
Junior Ito doubled Rons' lead. A second goal of the season for the Japanese winger.
Really good reactions from Ito. And just before halftime they could have made it three.
Nakamura played in Manezzi but he could only shoot straight at Fafana. Another good chance
for the Zimbabwean. Mamadou Diakon had looked sharp as a second half substitute.
His cross came loose to Teddy Touma but he couldn't capitalize. Diakon did really well
for Fafana denying the Malta international. And a minute later Diakon's wizardry wing play
would pay off. He danced into the box. His shot was stopped but Manezzi was on hand to finally
get his goal. Diakon's effort deflecting making it hard for Fafana. And the Zimbabwean reacted
quickest. It looked like Angers were going to end the day where they began it at the bottom of the
table. But Zinedine Ferhat gave Angers fans something to cheer about. It's just the fourth
goal they've scored this season. Really good footwork from Ferhat before finding the corner.
And with three minutes remaining, Ferhat turned provider for Nian but he just couldn't get his
on target. So close for the Senegalese forward. Angers didn't give up hope.
Nian swung a shot but it was easy for the goalkeeper. And that was a third win of the
season for Ronces. Angers still winless. Angers 1, Ronces 3.
