Angers remain dead last in Ligue 1 after being scuttled against Lorient (1-2). Monaco, Nantes and Toulouse won at home. All c


First day of 2023, and Ligue 1 is already back.

For the first multiplex of the year, Angers had a ninth consecutive success after opening the scoring (1-2).

Otherwise, the home teams all won like AS Monaco against Brest (1-0), Nantes against Auxerre (1-0) and Toulouse against Ajaccio (2-0).

Everything you need to remember.

The hard blow: Angers is scuttled

Last in Ligue 1 with eight points, and a series of eight consecutive defeats in Ligue 1, the SCO had to start the year on a high to continue to believe in maintenance.

After opening the scoring thanks to Abdallah Sima's header from a corner in the 10th minute, the Angevins finally cracked in the last quarter of an hour, first because of an own goal from the same Sim.

⏱ 90'+



Leading the score for more than 75 minutes, the SCO finally lost at home.

On an innocuous corner from Enzo Le Fée, the Senegalese striker beat his own goalkeeper Paul Bernardoni to deflect the ball into his cages at the far post.

Three minutes from the end of regulation time, the number 10 from Lorient took it upon himself to make the difference with a very nice shot under the bar.

2-1, final score, finally against the course of the game. Angers therefore chained a ninth consecutive loss and obviously remained red lantern with 11 small points.

The Hakes, they stop a series of six games without a win, and are now sixth.

The goal: Golovin's chain releases Monaco

Hard winner of Auxerre (3-2) for their last match of 2022, AS Monaco waited for a feat from Alexandre Golovin to get rid of Brest (1-0) at home, 17th before the encounter.

In the 54th minute of the match, the Russian receives the ball from 20m, hooks an opposing defender before sending a superb shot from the right into the top corner of a helpless Marco Bizot.

A jewel that allows the Monegasques with 33 points to return to equal points with Marseille, third.

We almost insisted on another superb sequence at the end of the first half when Eliesse Ben Seghir, holder after his double this week, managed a roulette on Brendan Chardonnet in the box before narrowly missing the right frame.

The story: Toulouse pulls through despite refereeing

January 1, and already a great refereeing error?

In the 11th minute of the match between "Téfécé" and Ajaccio, Farès Chaïbi, well offset by Issiaga Sylla on the right side, opened the scoring with a magnificent strike in force at the near post under the bar.

After the intervention of the VAR, the goal is disallowed for a push by Rafael Ratao in an aerial duel.

The Ajacciens had however had time to clear the ball, before Toulouse developed the action leading to the goal.

Enough for Pierre Gaillouste, the referee of the meeting…

A decision that can be confusing, but ultimately without consequences for Toulouse.

Ratao delivered his team in the 47th minute, before serving for the Brecht Dejaegere break fifteen minutes later (2-0) to give Téfécé a five-point lead in the red zone.

The fight to maintain: Nantes lets go of Auxerre

Nantes offered a precious success to start the year against Auxerre (1-0) a direct competitor.

In a match slightly dominated by the Canaries, Ignacius Ganago had found the bar at the half-hour mark on a blocked shot, before Marcus Coco found the fault in a fairly closed encounter on a good collective action in one touch between Girotto, Ganago and Coco, full axis.

The newcomer, served at the limit of offside, managed to slip the ball between the legs of Benoît Costil to score the only goal of the game.

Antoine Kombouaré's men move up to 14th place, and leave their afternoon opponent in 18th position.
