Nice defeated Nancy by a goal to nil to move top of Ligue 1, despite Mario Balotelli’s absence.

The 26-year-old had scored four goals in his first two appearances for the French side, but missed out on featuring in Sunday’s match due to a groin strain.

In the end, Alassane Plea’s second half goal was enough to give Balotelli’s new side their fifth win in seven League games this season.
