Today continues the 25th round of the French championship matches.
In the first game, local footballers from Guingamp faced the team of "Montpellier". Despite the fact that the hosts controlled the ball for more than 60 percent of the match time, the opponents made more shots on goal and scored twice. This was done by Morgan Sanson and Kevin Berigaud. However, the visitors also had the opportunity to further weaken the "Guingamp" team, but at the end of the match Djamel Bakar failed to score from the penalty spot.
A little later, the leader of the "Ligue 1" Lyon hosted mid-table Nantes at home. Hubert Fournier's players dominated the entire match, but only managed to beat the opponents' goalkeeper in the 67th minute, when Nabil Fekir scored after a pass from Alexandre Lacazette. In this match, fans also saw a missed penalty kick - Maxime Gonalons' shot went wide of the mark.
After a hard-fought victory, "Lyon" regained the top position in the standings, but "Paris Saint-Germain" is only two points behind.
In the last match, two of the strongest teams this season, "Marseille" and "Saint Etienne", faced each other. After a goalless first half, the second half provided plenty of action.
In the 54th minute, Max-Alain Gradel put the hosts "Saint Etienne" ahead, but just 13 minutes later, Michy Batshuayi's double gave "Marseille" a 2-1 lead. However, Marcelo Bielsa's players failed to maintain the advantage, as Mevlut Erdinc equalized in the final minutes of the match.
After the draw, "Marseille" allowed PSG in second place to extend their lead by two points and Lyon in first place by three points. "Saint Etienne" maintains fifth place.
