Nice were beaten by Nancy in a Ligue 1 match that was less close than the scoreline suggested.
AS Nancy Lorraine overcame Nice by a single goal at Stade Marcel Picot to claim all three points in Ligue 1.
It was quite an upset.
Nancy are the bottom team in the top flight in France at present, and would not be expected to claim victory against a side challenging for Europe.
Djamel Bakar grabbed the only goal of the game after 23 minutes, and Nancy managed to hold out with impressive defensive discipline.
