The 3rd day of Ligue 1 brought happiness this Sunday to Reims, Strasbourg and Metz.
As part of a perilous trip to Montpellier, which remained on a card inflicted on Lyon (1-4), the Rémois were able to sign a second success in a row in the league (1-3), carried by a goal from Abdelhamid (8e) and a brace from Teuma (41e56e) when only Al-Tamari struck for the Pailladins.
The Champenois thus invite themselves to the third step of the podium, pending the Lille match in Lorient, while the MHSC slips into ninth position, just ahead of Toulouse and Metz, who have had mixed fortunes this day. The TFC indeed suffered the law of Strasbourg at La Meinau (2-0). Emegha (52e) and Bellegarde (89e) having allowed the Alsatians to make the difference for a second victory this season and a fifth place in the standings on arrival.
