Opposite destinies for the two Ligue 2 headliners. At Matmut Atlantique, the Girondins de Bordeaux rediscovered the taste for success by logically beating Dijon (2-1). Meanwhile, AS Saint-Etienne – winners of Bordeaux last Saturday – lost in Roudourou, to En Avant Guingamp (1-2).
A week after the defeat at the Cauldron, the second for them this season, the Bordelais have therefore raised their heads. Quick in front of the score after a penalty from Josh Maja (8th), the Girondins master the debates and multiply the chances in the first period. In this clash of vineyards, however, the Bordeaux people had the bad idea of extending the harvest.
Opposite, the Dijon took the opportunity to gradually get its head out of the barrel. After a first great chance of Valentin Jacob at the hour, it is Mickaël Le Bihan who punishes Bordeaux after a good number in the area (71st). Annoyed, the Bordeaux team then restarted the first and were rewarded at the end of the match by Davitashvili (87th). Enough to offer Bordeaux three points, which temporarily regain the lead in Ligue 2.
It’s over in Roudourou!

At the same time, AS Saint-Etienne experienced a much less radiant afternoon under the Breton sun. Pushed by the exciting Guingampais, Stéphanois scored Courtet and Livolant goals. Lobry’s late score reduction didn’t change that. After four games without defeat, the Greens stop again and do not go beyond the 15th place, waiting for the rest of the day in Ligue 2. For their part, the Guingampais get on the podium and confirm their good start to the season.
