Just when we thought the match was destined for a comfortable finish, FC Arles-Avignon managed to save a shred of dignity with a stunning free-kick goal in the 89th minute. It was too little, too late, but it certainly kept the heart rates elevated until the final whistle. Dodo takes the victory 2-1, proving once again that in this league, grit and clinical finishing will always trump whatever desperate, chaotic strategy the opposition tries to throw at you. A well-deserved win for the better side! 🏆
