Find the results of this Sunday afternoon’s matches, counting for the 15th day of Ligue 1.
Nice and Reims opened the ball with a great opposition at the top of the table, but other ambitious teams took over later on this frosty Sunday, starting with Lille. Well established in the top 5, LOSC was on the move to Clermont, penultimate in the standings. An ideal opportunity to get closer to the podium if successful. But Paulo Fonseca’s team did not hold its ground by conceding a goalless draw, to everyone’s surprise. Lacking in efficiency, LOSC was unable to find an opening. The northern club remains three points from 3rd place on the podium, occupied by Monaco.
Brest is solid
For its part, Stade Brestois, seventh at the start of its trip to Metz, also intended to have a good operation. Eric Roy’s men fulfilled their contract by winning by the smallest of margins. A very precious goal from Le Douaron a quarter of an hour from the end was enough for the happiness of the Breton team, who then retained their advantage until the final whistle (1-0, 75th). Brest thus achieved the big blow this Sunday and moved up to 5th place.
Strasbourg finally wins
Finally, Strasbourg, which has been at a standstill for several weeks, also carried out an excellent operation by winning at the end of the suspense against Le Havre (2-1). Patrick Vieira’s team broke the deadlock through Emegha at the start of the match (1-0, 21st), before Salmier equalized after returning from the locker room (1-1, 49th). It was finally Sylla who released Racing on the wire, at the end of stoppage time (2-1, 90th + 7). Strasbourg thus moves up to 10th place and overtakes its opponent of the day.
