29th stage: "Lyon" approaches the title © EuroFootball.com

After this weekend's matches in the French football championship "Ligue 1", the situation in the tournament table remains unchanged - the leader position is still firmly held by "Lyon", defending the champions' title.

The champions of the last years "Ligue 1" on Saturday defeated "Istres" with a score of 2-1 and maintain an 8-point advantage over "Marseille" with 9 games left until the end of the championship, who also won with the same score with two goals by Steve Matlet against "Lens".

"Monaco", "Lille" and "Auxerre" clubs are falling further behind the leaders, playing a draw this round - "Monaco" and "Auxerre" finished with a 2-2 draw, while "Lille" failed to beat the "Toulouse" team.

An unexpected victory in this round was achieved by one of the championship outsiders, "Ajaccio", who defeated the "P.S.G" resistance with a score of 1-0 and moved up to the 18th position.

Edgaras Jankauskas' team "Nice" also failed to win again. The Nice team played a goalless draw with "Strasbourg" this time, with Lithuania's national team striker appearing in the 64th minute.
