PARIS, March 10 (Xinhua) -- Italian striker Mario Balotelli ended his scoring drought, earning Nice a 2-2 home draw with Caen in the 29th round of Ligue 1 action on Friday. One point put the southern coast side's in a dangerous position in a three-team title race.
Nice provisionally moved up to the second place, one point ahead of defending champions Paris Saint-Germain, and they are two points adrift leaders Monaco, but with a game in hand, both Monaco and PSG could extend their margin over Nice.
Nice only recorded two losses coming into this match, one of which was against Caen, who won 1-0 last November. Nice could not find attacking space in front of their opponents' tough defense, and the visitors broke the deadlock on 36 minutes, when their top scorer Ivan Santini jumped higher than Dante to head the pass from the left wing in, recording his 12th goal of the campaign.
Confident Caen extended their lead to two goals in a brilliant counter-attack five minutes after the interval, as Yann Karamoh lifted the ball over Nice goalkeeper and then put the ball into an empty goal against defender Dante.
Nice showed their resistance with less than 20 minutes remaining, and the "Super Mario" swept Dante's header at the target, before substitute Donis finished the home side's comeback in the 77th minute, when his shot found the net after hitting both posts.
Nice could conclude the match in a dramatic victory, but Le Bihan, who was off the bench for injured midfielder Wylan Cyprien, only saw his volley off the post. Nice's challenge for a penalty was also denied by the referee after Caen defender seeming touched the ball with his arm late in the game.
In Friday's another match, Marseille beat Angers 3-0 at home on Florian Thauvin's brace, going past Bordeaux for the fifth.
BERLIN nike zoom fly uk , Aug. 8 (Xinhua) -- Germany recorded its biggest monthly drop in exports in nearly two years in June, according to figures released on Tuesday.
After witnessing growth for five consecutive months, exports fell by 2.8 percent in June compared to May nike air force 270 uk , according to Germany's Federal Statistical Office. The slump exceeded economists' expectations of a slight decrease and constituted the biggest fall since August 2015.
Imports fell even further by 4.5 percent during the same period, the worst figure since January 2009.
In total, German firms sold goods worth 107.2 billion euros (126.58 billion U.S. dollars) in June which still marked a slight increase of 0.7 percent year on year. Trade with other Eurozone countries grew by 2.7 percent nike air footscape uk , further underlining the bloc's strengthening economic recovery. Exports to countries outside the European Union such as the United States and China fell by 1.7 percent.
Adjusted for seasonal fluctuations, German exports exceeded imports by 21.2 billion euros (25.03 billion U.S. dollars) - the biggest trade surplus since August 2016.
Germany has been criticized internationally, including by U.S. President Donald Trump nike flyknit trainer uk , for its large and long-lasting current account surpluses. The Washington-based International Monetary Fund has warned that the German trade balance suggests insufficient domestic investment which could harm growth in the longer term.
Germany continues to boast high productivity by international standards, however, and the simultaneous fall in imports and exports in June may indicate a gradual reorientation of the economy towards domestic consumption.
