Nice Vs Lens Women's Division 2

It’s Footy on the Med with a difference for this episode – and not just because John O’Hare was sunning himself in Italy and unable to be present. Sans The Entertainer, Alex ‘Alex Wade’ Wade and Young Trafford decided to broaden their knowledge of Mediterranean football by witnessing Nice Femmes v Lens Femmes. This was a D2 clash in French Women’s Professional Football, played not at the Allianz Riviera stadium (good job, it’s cursed) but nearby among OGC Nice’s conglomeration of pitches and buildings. A vociferous crowd of some 400 watched the home side lose to Lens, in a match full of slick passing, great technique and, in the final 15 minutes, a bit of aggression too. It was a fine Sunday afternoon out in warm October sun, with five goals to savour. Nice Femmes 2, Lens 3 was recorded at the Stade De La Plaine on Sunday 22 October 2023.
