Flags.
Lille 3 Nancy 2
As a precursor to the game I enjoyed the sunshine and some fine Belgian beer whilst watching the FA Cup final in an Australian bar.
In the evening it was a short metro ride to get to the Metropole stadium and join the close to capacity crowd for this final game of the league season.
Most waved their flags (apart from the Nancy fans)
Lille had the better of the first half scoring through Vittek and Rami though Nancy did pull one back from defender Ouaddou near the break.
Then Youssouf Hadji squeezed in a free kick to equalise for the visitors.
However all turned OK for the locals when Plestan converted from a corner.
Lille thus confirmed their place in the next seasons Europa League.
The following day I returned (flagless) via the Eurostar.
