Bordeaux, the terrible outcome

The Girondins de Bordeaux will have missed promotion to Ligue 3 again this season.

It’s official. Barring a hypothetical draft linked to a possible administrative demotion of a third, Bordeaux will play a third year in the fourth division. This Saturday, when anything could still happen in this 30e and last lifting of National 2, the FCGB had to admit defeat.

While they led 0-2 then 1-3 on the Avranches pitch, the Bordelais finally shared the points with the Normans (3-3). This while La Roche-sur-Yon, at the same time, did not tremble on the Locminé field (0-2), despite a missed penalty.

The Yonnais therefore conclude this championship three steps ahead of Bordeaux, winning the one and only ticket for the future Ligue 3. Others promoted to the third division, AS Cannes, after 15 years of absence at this level, and US Thionville Lusitanos.
