Ligue 1: PSG shaken, OM does not advance, Lorient beaten, Rennes on the podium … what to remember of the 13th matchday

PSG got scared against Troyes, while OM was hooked in Strasbourg, Lens chained against Toulouse and Rennes got on the podium, thanks to the victory against Montpellier, at the expense of Lorient beaten by Nice. Here’s everything there is to remember from Matchday 13 of Ligue 1.

Lens 3-0 Toulouse

Dolphin solid lens. At home, Sang et Or chained their third consecutive win against Toulouse (3-0) on Friday, consolidating their second place in the standings behind PSG. And Franck Haise’s men made a difference in the second half. After seeing Seko Fofana’s penalty being rejected by Maxime Dupé (50^And), opened the scoring thanks to a header from Loïs Openda (60^And). The striker was the great architect of Lensois’ success with two other goals scored at the end of the game (86^Andninety two^And). With this success, Lens have reaffirmed their ambitions in this league, while Toulouse have relapsed after four unbeaten games.

PSG 4-3 Troyes

Paris pushed, but Paris won. In pain, the capital’s club maintained their invincibility this season this Saturday, registering a new success against Troyes (4-3). Twice he scored on goals from Mama Baldé (3^And52^And), Carlos Soler equalized for the first time (24^And) before Lionel Messi in turn drew the two teams (55^And). And finally the Parisians take the lead thanks to Neymar (62^And) and a penalty from Kylian Mbappé (77^And), even if they trembled until the end with the goal of Ante Palaversa right at the end of the game (88^And). This success allows the reigning French champion to establish his first place. For his part, Estac, who may have regrets, recorded a 5^And game without wins (3 draws, 2 defeats).

Strasbourg 2-2 Marseille

OM can no longer do that. Hanging on Saturday in Strasbourg (2-2), the Olympic club chained a fourth game without the slightest victory (3 defeats, 1 draw). And those protected by Igor Tudor can blame themselves. They led by two goals thanks to Bamba Dieng (8^And) and Issa Kabore (35^And), but they collapsed in the last quarter of an hour. Lebo Mothiba narrowed the gap before Kevin Gameiro equalized in injury time with a fantastic left-footed recovery (94^And). With this new poor performance, Marseille continues to lag behind in the standings. The Alsatian club earned him a valuable point.

Auxerre-Ajaccio 1-0

A successful record for Christophe Pélissier. The new Auxerre coach saw his side beat Ajaccio at Abbé-Deschamps (1-0) on Sunday. And AJA’s success came with a right-footed shot from Hamza Sakhi early in the match (8^And). With this victory Auxerre, who hadn’t won since the end of August, put an end to a series of eight unsuccessful matches in the league and gave themselves some air. For its part, Ajaccio remains stuck in the penultimate place in the standings.

Brest 0-0 Reims

Reims no longer loses. On the ground of Brest (0-0), the Champagne club signed the fifth consecutive match without defeat (1 win, 4 draws), but once again showed its difficulties in the last gesture with a new match without scoring. With this point, Reims points to 13^And place in the standings, while Brest, who have not yet won at home this season, are still in the red zone (18^And).

Nantes 1-1 Clermont

Sharing points in La Beaujoire. Nantes and Clermont fail to decide (1-1). However, the Auvergne club had taken the lead and opened the scoring with a point blank header from Neto Borges (54^And). But the Canaries draw with about twenty minutes from the end with Mostafa Mohamed (73^And). In the standings Clermont remains in the first part of the standings, while Nantes still struggles to take off and remains frozen in 15^And sound.

Monaco 2-0 Angers

Monaco returns to success. Weaned from victory in their last two Ligue 1 games, the Principality club won at home against Angers (2-0). Hanged in the first half, where Wissam Ben Yedder misses a penalty, the Monegasques are delivered by Breel Embolo immediately after the interval (54^And) before Alexandre Golovin doubled (70^And). With these three points, Monaco moved up to Marseille in 5th place^And square. Angers, out of a four-defeat streak, is still bottom of the table.

Rennes-Montpellier 3-0

Nothing can stop the Stade Rennais. Undefeated since the end of August, the Breton club recorded a 14^And game without defeat in all competitions overcoming a Montpellier in poor condition (3-0) to get on the podium behind Lens. Bruno Genesio’s men take the lead from the quarter of an hour thanks to the inevitable Martin Terrier (15^And) before launching with the results of Arnaud Kalimuendo (23^And) and Amine Gouiri (85^And). If Rennes are in excellent form, Montpellier continues to sink with this fourth consecutive defeat, the 6^And in the last seven games.

Lorient 1-2 Nice

Suspension for Lorient. The Morbihan club, which had not known defeats since the end of August, fell at home to Nice (1-2). Régis Le Bris’s men, however, had opened the scoring with a header from Dango Ouattara shortly after the quarter of an hour (18^And). But they failed to counterattack and were landed in the second half by the Nice side. At the end of a small festival, Youcef Atal tied the two teams (61^And) and it was Gaëtan Laborde, who came on the counterattack, who offered the victory to the Aiglons (69^And). This success allows the Riviera club to return to 10^And square. For his part, Lorient, who took only two points out of nine, gives up his place on the podium in Rennes.
