Monaco is getting closer to the podium, Olympique Lyonnais relapses
monaco carried out the good operation of this day of League 1 by dominating Brest on the smallest score (1-0). Thanks to this result, the ASM is back to Marseilles on the podium.
The podium, Olympique Lyonnais is still very far from it after its defeat against the Auvergnats, on a penalty at the end of the match from the Austrian Muhammed Cham (86th). The revolution of the new coach, Laurent Blanc, is not advancing. After their great victory in Brest (4-2), the Rhodanians took another step back, and were only 8th, closely followed by their winner of the day, two lengths behind.
FC Nantes moves away from the red zone
While waiting for the shock at the top, the second, Lens, which receives the leader, Paris Saint-Germain (kick-off at 8:45 p.m.), and Monday’s matches, FC Nantes (14th) has distanced itself from the area red by dominating Auxerre (18th) on a goal from Marcus Coco (1-0).
At the bottom of the standings, the SCO of Angers remains stuck in last place with a ninth defeat in a row, against the course of the game, against Lorient (2-1), revived after six games without a win.
At the Raymond-Kopa stadium in Angers, the stands were very clear for this abnormal day of January 1.
Rumbles against the “Holiday week”
The loudest were the few hundred people from Lorient in the park and the dozens of Moroccans who came to wave flags in honor of Boufal and Ounahi, the two SCO Lions who came fourth in the World Cup in Qatar.
Returning from vacation on Saturday, the two players were honored by the club and briefly trained the supporters before kick-off
In Nantes, this “Celebration Week” wanted by the Professional Football League (LFP) also made people cringe. Supporter organizations had called for a boycott of the match to protest against the holding of meetings during the week and on January 1, with a Loire tribune banner saying: “LFP, broadcasters: your programming is killing our stadiums”.
The Bollaert stadium, on the other hand, should be packed for the Lens-PSG clash.
