RC Lens obtains an important 2-1 success against Nîmes in the race for Europe.
Ignatius Ganago opened the scoring (17th) but the Lensois were quickly reduced to ten with the expulsion of Issiaka Sylla (24th).
This allowed Nîmes to come back, Zinédine Ferhat transformed a penalty (52nd).
Lensois defender Massadio Haidara found the flaw on a corner (76th) to allow the Blood and Gold to win.
Franck Haise's men are back in fifth place, ahead of OM with one point ahead.
This defeat is dear to Nîmes which loses its place of barrage to the benefit of Nantes.
The Canaries won 2-1 in Strasbourg, thanks to the achievements of Jean-Charles Castelletto (53rd) and Ludovic Blas (76th).
Antoine Kombouaré's players reacted well in the second half despite the opening score of Ludovic Ajorque a little earlier (43rd).
Still at the bottom of the table, Dijon is officially relegated to Ligue 2 following this new 5-1 defeat on the lawn of Rennes. The DFCO scored the first goal of this game, signed Yassine Benzia (9th) but Bruno Genesio's players unfolded. The scorers are Martin terrier (16th, 71st), Florian Tait (72nd) and Gerzino Nyamsi (81st) and Clément Grenier (90 + 2nd). Dijon will therefore find the second division five years after leaving it.
While the internal situation is very delicate at the Girondins de Bordeaux, things are not going better on the pitch.
Jean-Louis Gasset's players lost again 4-1 against Lorient, this is the fifth consecutive loss in the league.
