In a boiling Bollaert stadium, RC Lens managed to take the scalp of Stade Brestois.
Brest’s good series has come to an end. For the first time in four months and without necessarily having been inferior to its opponent of the day, the Finistère team lost in Ligue 1. It was lost on the field of another team at the top of the table, RC Lens .
Haise’s men confirmed their brilliant success against Lyon (3-0). This time, they were less flamboyant, but behind them they were impeccable. For almost the entire second half, they stood back to resist the opposing attacks. To preserve their victory, they were able to count on a very great Brice Samba.
Lens had more success
Roy’s team may have regrets. Because she was not unworthy and she also gave in on one of her rare opportunities. Ruben Aguilar signed the only achievement of the season, with a header from close range after a helmet hit from Elye Wahi on the crossbar.
By winning, Lens climbs to 4 for the first time this seasone place in the ranking, tied on points with Monaco (42 units). The Northerners can still dream of reaching the Champions League. And this is also the case for their victim of the day, despite the setback conceded.
This result also suits PSG. In the event of a victory on Sunday against Reims, the French champions would total 12 points at the top of the standings.
