Find the results of this Sunday afternoon’s matches, counting for the 10th day of Ligue 1.

After PSG’s success in Brest at the start of the afternoon (3-2), several top teams were out, starting with Monaco. Traveling to Lille, the Principality club had the opportunity to regain its leadership position if successful. But against all expectations, the Monegasques got their feet wet. Less realistic than usual in the two truth zones, the Rocher players were unable to avoid the trap set by a Lille team in great form.

Everything was decided in the last quarter of an hour of the first act in this meeting. LOSC broke the deadlock through Cavaleiro after half an hour of play (1-0, 32nd), before doubling the lead before returning to the locker room with a goal from Diakité (2-0, 42nd). The score, which has not changed, does not suit a Monegasque team third behind PSG. The princely club also sees its opponent of the day return to its sights.

Montpellier hits hard

The other good operation of the day was to the credit of Montpellier, which largely dominated Toulouse (3-0). Despite the events of a hectic week behind the scenes, the MHSC achieved a very convincing success. A victory which bears the signature of Adams, author of a double (12th, 71st), while Fayad scored the third Montpellier goal (62nd). Eleventh, Michel Der Zakarian’s team overtakes Téfécé, which completes a very delicate week after the slap at Anfield against Liverpool (1-5).

Finally, the promoted duel between Metz and Le Havre did not result in a winner. A good point for the Normans, who remain at a respectable distance from a direct competitor.
