While the three leading teams won this weekend – PSG, Nice and Monaco – Lille missed the boat in Clermont. Brest, on the other hand, had plenty of points.

In this 15e lifted from Ligue 1, faced with 17e and penultimate in the elite, Losc was unable to find the fault, forced into a goalless draw which left it three lengths behind ASM and the podium.

With all the more regret for the Mastiffs as Cabella had found the net, at the end of an action interrupted by the referee for an alleged foul by the northern striker (83rd).

Clermont for its part returns to two points temporarily from the waterline and a TFC traveling to Lyon at the end of the afternoon.
