And five! Five victories in a row in Ligue 1 for Strasbourg who thus invited himself into the Top 4 of the elite, temporarily up to OM and with one point ahead of OL – two on Nice and Lille six days before the end of the championship.

At the same time, in fact, Le Havre went to win in Montpellier (0-2) thanks to Kechta (3e) and Touré (33e), chestnuts in the 15the Place de Reims and abandoning the uncomfortable barragist position at the Champagne club, with three points ahead only on the first virtual convicted that is Saint-Etienne. The MHSC, for its part, is now closing walking with 11 units behind this duty of security.

Finally, note the victory over the Auxerre thread in Rennes (0-1), on a Jobal goal at the very end of the match (89e). 12e Only the elite, Stade Rennais finds itself six lengths from its opponent of the day, 10e. 15 points from the first European ticket…
