Loic Puyo's second-half free kick secured AS Nancy their first home point in Ligue 1 this season as they drew 1-1 with Nantes.

Midfielder Puyo curled the ball into the top corner in the 72nd minute to cancel out Mariusz Stepinski's second-half opener for the visitors.

Stepinski's first-half header was well saved by Nancy goalkeeper Guy N'Dy Assembe, who also kept out Nantes substitute Yacine Bammou's angled drive in the 63rd minute.

Stepinski buried his shot into the bottom corner after being played in by Leo Dubois in the 66th minute but Puyo levelled with his fine free kick after Lucas Lima had fouled Anthony Koura within striking distance.
