On Tuesday afternoon, the employees of FC Nantes gathered for a barbecue at the Beaujoire stadium. It was the first time in 2024 that there was activity at a venue that had only witnessed its team’s defeats during the year. Nantes ended the season with a heavy loss to Monaco (0-4), marking their worst performance of the year alongside the defeat against Lens with Pierre Aristouy on October 28. This result highlighted the team’s fatigue and lack of vigor.
The defeat against Monaco was a stark reminder of Nantes’ struggles throughout the season. With this loss being one of the heaviest they faced, it reflected the team’s overall downtrend in performance. The lack of energy and motivation among the players was evident, as they could not match the intensity and quality of their opponents on the field.
As the season came to a close, Nantes’s disappointing performance against Monaco highlighted the challenges they faced throughout the year. The team’s lack of resilience and inability to bounce back from setbacks ultimately led to a series of defeats. Moving forward, Nantes will need to regroup and refocus in order to come back stronger in the upcoming season.
