Ligue 2, 38th and last day

It’s not completely official but Le Havre and Metz are already happy. The two formations should play in Ligue 1, pending the decision of the LFP concerning Bordeaux-Rodez arrested. The HAC beat Dijon 1-0. However, the match was not finished due to an invasion of the pitch by HAC supporters. Dijon did not want to resume the match which ended like this, with a forfeit from the visitors because the referee could only note the absence of Pascal Dupraz’s players when they returned from the locker room. With 75 points, the Le Havre return to L1 after 14 years of waiting and are L2 champions. Dijon and Pascal Dupraz are thus condemned to the descent in National. Metz finished second after their 3-2 success over Bastia and also returned to L1.

At the bottom of the table, there is confusion. While the Bordeaux-Rodez match was interrupted at 0-1, the result will be decided by the LFP in the coming days. The result is important for Annecy, on borrowed time after their 1-0 defeat at Paris FC. The Haut-Savoyards were overtaken by Laval, winner 2-1 in Amiens after a goal in the 94th minute. While the rises of Dunkirk and Concarneau remain threatened by the authorities, this promises confused weeks for the Professional Football League.
