Brest does the job before finding PSG

After ensuring his qualification for the quarterfinals of the Coupe de France Tuesday evening in Troyes (1-2), the Bretons of Eric Roy chained this Friday evening with a success in Nantes (0-2), at the opening of The 21e Ligue 1 day.

Worn by a very good Romain Faivre, the Brestois opened the brand thanks to a head of Ludovic Ajorque (0-1, 11e). Solid defensively, the Bretons then well contained the Nantes offensives. Canaries who have not deserved but who were too clumsy to hope to come back in this match.
