Bordeaux, by winning 1-0 at home against Caen on Saturday at the start of the 34th day of Ligue 2, consolidated its second place in the standings, followed by three points by Metz, who got out of the Niort trap (3 -1). Leader Le Havre will host Rodez on Monday.
The Girondins showed efficiency by scoring a goal on their only two shots on target in the game, through Zuriko Davitashvili (16th), slightly offside when receiving the pass from Josh Maja in depth.

The Bordelais (65 points), whose schedule should be more lenient at the end of the season (travel to Quevilly and Annecy, reception of Laval and Rodez on the last day), are advancing a little more towards the rise in Ligue 1, a season after leaving her.
Behind, the Messins (3rd) still follow but were scared in the face of Niortais close to the descent.
Led 1-0 in the 42nd minute after Nesta Elphege’s opener, Georges Mikautadze took advantage of a penalty just after to come back level. Youssef Maziz, from the head, then allowed the Mosellens to take the lead (51st).
Mikautadze offered himself a double at the end of the game after a mistake by the Niortaise defense (83rd).
The Chamois Niortais, despite their defeat, remain alive since their destiny also depended on a victory for Valenciennes (15th) and Annecy (16th).

Gold Valenciennes was held in check (3-3) at another poorly ranked, Nîmes, after a spectacular match where the Nîmes came back to score twice in the second half thanks to Benoît Poulain (65th) and Nicolas Benezet (71st) – who responded to a double from Aymen Boutoutaou (61 and 70th).
Annecy, for its part, was held back by Dijon at home. Alexy Bosetti thought he had delivered his team in the 85th minute, but Bryan Soumaré equalized with a powerful strike (87th).
VAFC and Annecy are one point behind 17th place, occupied by Laval, winner (2-1) against Bastia.
In great shape at the end of the season, Sochaux were beaten at Amiens 1-0, while Paris FC won against Grenoble (1-0).
The evening offered other meetings rich in goals with the victory of Saint-Étienne against Guingamp (3-2) and that of Quevilly in Pau (4-3).
