On the edge of the red zone at kick-off, FC Versailles raised its head for the first of its new coach, Grégory Vignal. The matter was quickly resolved since the Yvelines team scored twice in twenty minutes and Nîmes received two red cards in the first period. The NO finally left with six goals in their bag (6-0), and Versailles with a good dose of confidence. The slope was also steep for the Chamois, trailing 2-0 at GOAL FC. Niort nevertheless crucified the promoted man thanks to Nesta Elphege (89e) and Dylan Durivaux (90e+1) to snatch a precious victory (2-3), synonymous with second place. It was also necessary to stay until the end in Bauer, where the Red Star had to wait for the 89e minute to definitively gain the upper hand over Marignane-Gignac (2-1).
Rouen saved its place on the podium at the last minute by scoring a draw against Villefranche Beaujolais (1-1). The Normans equalized after added time through Sofyane Bouzamoucha (90e+5), while they were led from 2e minute. Money time agitated, again, at the Francis Turcan stadium, where the penalty from Karim Tlili (89e) got Martigues out of the quagmire against Nancy (1-0). Winner of Cholet (2-0) and now undefeated for seven games, Sochaux remains in ambush, like Dijon. The DFCO was able to turn its back on Orléans (1-2), despite 45 minutes in numerical inferiority following the second yellow of Loïc Etanga, who had previously scored. Finally, the red lantern Epinal fought back by winning its second victory of the season. No luck for Avranches (4-0), Ismaël Camara was in Olympic form and scored a hat-trick. It gets tighter at the bottom of the ranking since only six points separate 10e from 18e.
Do you see them, the drops of sweat on all these foreheads?
