In a thrilling encounter at the Stade de la Licorne, Strasbourg secured their second victory in a row against Angers, leaving them just two points behind leaders Monaco in Ligue 1.
The game began with both teams looking to assert their dominance early on. However, it was Strasbourg who took the lead through a goal from Diallo in the first half. The Ivory Coast international showed his clinical finishing ability as he headed home after a clever cross from Gameiro.
The visitors continued to dominate possession throughout the match, creating several opportunities for themselves. However, they were unable to find the back of the net until the 75th minute when Diallo scored again, this time from the penalty spot following a handball by the Angers goalkeeper.
Despite their efforts, Angers could not find any way back into the game and Strasbourg held on to secure their second win of the season. With only three games remaining in the campaign, Strasbourg now sit in fifth place, four points off the top spot, but still within touching distance of their rivals.
Overall, it was a dominant display from Strasbourg, who have shown great resilience and determination under new head coach Franck Passi. With Diallo and Gameiro continuing to impress in attack, there is every reason to believe that Strasbourg will be a force to be reckoned with in the coming weeks.
