Nancy thrashes FC Mamer 8‑0 on July 4 2026
AS Nancy‑Lorraine demolished FC Mamer 8‑0 in its first pre‑season test, at the municipal stadium in Toul on Saturday July 4 at 11 a.m. Managed by Oswald Tanchot, two line‑ups started the game, later reinforced by reserve youngsters, delivering a dominant win over the Luxembourgish D2 side.
What were the key moments of the match?
The opening goal came in the 14th minute, scored by Fdaouch. Tandia added a second at the 36th, followed by a Guendez hat‑trick (71st, 72nd, 87th) and a Schnepp brace (89th, 89th). Schnepp’s finish came from a Tacafred cross, slipping under the Mamer keeper. Nancy kept the pressure, notably a Carpentier free‑kick at the 80th that set up Kébé for the sixth goal.
Why does this result matter for Nancy?
The win arrives while Nancy sits 14th in Ligue 2 with 37 points (9 W‑10 D‑15 L) and a recent form of 4 W‑1 D over the last five games, including a four‑match winning streak. Offensively, the club has scored 35 goals this season while conceding 52, a gap the team aims to close as it trails leaders Estac Troyes by 30 points.
What are the prospects ahead?
Following the triumph, Tanchot can experiment with new tactical setups before the league kicks off. The depth shown by reserve players offers additional options for upcoming challenges. A mid‑July friendly will test the defence, which kept a clean sheet today but will face tougher Ligue 2 opponents.
Where does Nancy stand in the relegation battle?
With 37 points, AS Nancy‑Lorraine remains mid‑table, yet the recent 3‑2 win over Dunkerque on May 9 2026 proves the side can fight. Maintaining offensive momentum could narrow the gap with mid‑table rivals and secure the club’s Ligue 2 status for next season.
