The Girondins started their season with a heavy setback in Pau on Monday evening.
Despite a certain domination, the Bordelais lost 3-0 away from home, surprised by Saivet (17e), George (19e) and Boutaib (73e) – Vipotnik having missed a penalty (65e).
With this clear success at the end of the first round of Ligue 2, the Palois join Auxerre and Guingamp at the top of the classification.
Weighted by an incredible scenario at the end of last season and sanctioned with a penalty point, the FCGB for its part remains at the back of the pack, with -1 on the clock.
