Nice secures top-3 finish in French league (The Associated Press)
With five games left to play, Nice is guaranteed a top-three finish in the French league for the first time in more than 40 years. Chasing its first league crown since 1959, the southern side beat struggling Nancy 3-1 on Saturday to ensure its first podium slot since it was runner-up behind Saint-Etienne in 1976. The only team still unbeaten at home, apart from defending champion Paris Saint-Germain, Nice was caught cold against the run of the play after 26 minutes.
