Valenciennes faces a daunting task if they aim to secure their survival in Ligue 1. Their journey begins this Sunday with a crucial match against Nantes in the 34th round of the championship. With 15 points still up for grabs in the season, Valenciennes finds themselves six points adrift of safety. While the challenge ahead appears formidable, it remains within the realm of possibility. Over the course of two matches, Ariel Jacobs’ squad has the opportunity to narrow the gap that separates them from a more favorable position in the league table. However, achieving this objective necessitates nothing less than a flawless performance against Nantes.
In a tweet posted on the club’s official account, Senegalese player Saliou Ciss expressed the team’s determination:
“Saliou Ciss: ‘Winning two, three or four matches in a row is difficult but possible.’ #VAFCFCN #VA1Club1Public1Maintenance”
“Saliou Ciss: ‘It will be up to us to direct the game, to put pressure on @FCNantes to seek victory.’ #VAFCFCN”
This statement underscores Valenciennes’ resolve to take control of the match and apply pressure on Nantes in their pursuit of victory.
