Forced off with injured ankle
Bard abandoned Friday's clash with Saint-Etienne due to an ankle issue, Flavien Tresarrieu of L'Equipe reports.
Analysis: Bard went down after taking an ugly tackle in the final minutes of the first half Friday, so he was unable to add to his lone chance created and four duels won. The left-back's injury will need to be assessed, but he'll benefit from a lengthy rest ahead of the next season kickoff. He was a consistent starter when available over the last year, recording two goals and an assist while averaging 4.6 ball recoveries, 2.6 clearances and 1.8 tackles per game.
Makes five interceptions vs Lens
Bard generated two crosses (zero accurate), five clearances and one tackle in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Lens. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 90th minute.
Analysis: Bard led Nice with a season-high five interceptions during the home draw. The left-back had a good defensive outing, making the second-most clearances for his side. He also received his fifth yellow card in the proccess, though.
