The Gym and Toulouse cancel each other out (0-0)

The Gym and Toulouse played out a goalless draw on Sunday on Matchday 36 of Ligue 1 (0-0).

After an hour of generally balanced play, Le Gym come away regretting their lack of efficiency in the final stages of the match. In a 4-3-3 formation - like their opponents - with Youcef Atal and Alexis Beka Beka back in the starting line-up, the Aiglons stepped up a gear in the second half after Didier Digard made changes.

By sending on Bard and Diop with Barkley, then Brahimi on the right wing, the Gym coach changed the face of the match, if not the score, despite a host of clear-cut chances in the last half-hour. Diop was stopped by Dupé following a fine through ball from Bard (61', photo below); Bard and Laborde had good efforts that were saved by the same keeper (69' and 78'); Moffi hit the post with his body after a cross from Laborde (84') ; Diop took a first-time time shot from Laborde which Dupé saved (again) (85'); then Laborde missed the target after a counter-attack started by Brahimi, accelerated by Barkley and extended by a Moffi shot that was blocked (86').

The Gym did not concede any clear-cut chances to their visitors in the second half. Coupe de France winners TFC were dangerous in the first half, but Schmeichel saved well from Dallinga (30') and Chaïbi (43'), then was helped on his line by Dante when he was beaten by a Ratao volley (42').

Despite some good football and an attacking display, the Aiglons were unable to secure a second successive home win. They will travel to Montpellier next Saturday for their last game of the season (M37, kick-off 9pm CET).
