Un match haletant

Image credit.


A great way of practising French: eating dinner and watching live football commentary on the internet, while on and off I copy-and-paste unknown terms over into the LEO dictionary.

Great performance by Lucien Favre (coach) and enfant terrible Mario Balotelli, scoring two decisive goals in his first match with Nice.

Fin du match ! (3-2)

Nice l'emporte face à l'OM au terme d'un match haletant (3-2) ! Très beau spectacle en ce dimanche soir qui a vu une équipe niçoise l'emporter face à des Phocéens trop courts physiquement en fin de match.
The source.

In the context of this match, I'd translate haletant as atemberaubend, breathtaking.
