Leader Lille easily won 2-0 in Dijon on Wednesday evening. Le Losc preserves its leadership position


No miracle has happened on the lawn of the Burgundy club: Dijon, the red lantern of Ligue 1, logically bowed to the Northerners, leaders since the previous day and who remain this Wednesday.

What you must remember

Cleverly served in withdrawal by his compatriot Celik, the Turkish Yazici opened the scoring, materializing the ultra domination of Lille (0-1, 19th).

Before Racioppi's nets trembled, Galtier's players had accumulated several very clear chances by Yazici already (8th), David (11th) and Ikoné (31st).

For their part, the Dijonnais hardly shot twice on goal in the first period, without worrying Maignan.

After the break, the locals could never consider the equalizer.

The players of David Linarès, who remained in three games without defeat (two draws, one victory), see their recovery operation put on hold, at least temporarily.

For its part, Lille did not do everything to double the stake.

Perhaps the Mastiffs already had in mind the arrival of PSG at the Pierre-Mauroy stadium on Sunday (9 p.m.).

It was Dijon, through an approximation of Panzo, who offered Timothée Weah, the opportunity to score his first goal of the season in Ligue 1, with a powerful recovery in the half-volley. right (0-2, 90th + 3).

The player: Yusuf Yazici

The attacking midfielder of Losc took his responsibilities, uncrossing a recovery of the left foot in the small net of Racioppi (19th).

The 23-year-old Turk now has 5 goals in Ligue 1, just one unit behind Burak Yilmaz, his compatriot who entered the 58th tonight.

Also the author of two previous assists, Yazici has been involved in six of Lille's last 11 goals in Ligue 1. Six times a Europa League scorer, Yazici has scored 11 times this season in all competitions against a single goal last season.

A total which, mid-season, says a lot about the influence of the young Turkish international.

The number: 100

This Wednesday, Christophe Galtier led at the Gaston-GĂ©rard Stadium in Dijon his 100th game at the helm of Losc.

The statement

Xeka (at Téléfoot's microphone): “We started out very well, we had quite a few very good chances and we should have been more killers.

We are well with three wins in a row.

We must continue like this.

[…].

We think every time about the team we're going to play next.

The championship is far from over.

We continue our eighth game and there is fatigue too ... "
