Nice claimed 1-0 home victory over Montpellier in Ligue 1 on Friday, its first win for six matches in all competitions.
Olivier Boscagli became the youngster scorer in Ligue 1 this season as he netted the winner in Nice's 1-0 home victory over Montpellier.
The host stays fifth in the table but close to within two points of the top three after a week that had seen it exit the Coupe de la Ligue on penalties at Guingamp.
The visitor, meanwhile, remains 13th after a keenly fought contest was settled by 18-year-old Boscagli's first-half goal, a calm left-footed finish.
