Nice's third place in Ligue 1 is threatened by Marseille and Lorient, who face each other on Sunday evening, after the surprise defeat of Gym in Troyes (1-0), during a 10th day when Saint-Etienne collapsed in Strasbourg (5-1).

The eventual winner of OM-Lorient, between the losing Marseillais and the "Hake" undefeated for almost two months, would chase Nice from the podium.

Troyes takes a little breath ...

Lens missed the opportunity to distance the OGCN by losing to Montpellier (1-0), in a very spectacular match, and remains nine lengths behind Paris SG, winner Friday of Angers (2-1), and still two points ahead of Nice.

The bottom of the standings being also very tight, Troyes made an excellent operation, with the return to L1 of Adil Rami, who replaced Oualid El Ajjam, injured (27th).

“I'm still standing, I'm a 4x4!

laughed the world champion.

I did the job, we did the job with this first victory at home.

These are three super important points for the team.

An entry goal from Mama Baldé (3rd) was enough for the Estac, which benefited from the draw of Brest (18th) at home against Reims (1-1) and especially the defeats of the last two.

... Saint-Etienne is still sinking

Saint-Etienne, always last, lived an ordeal in Strasbourg, where Zaydou Youssouf scored against his camp (38th) before being excluded (44th) for a nasty tackle on Ludovic Ajorque.

The Alsatians have driven the point home several times (5-1).

The position of coach Claude Puel is threatened after this new failure.

ASSE haven't won a single game this season.

“We took a bamboo stick.

It's a second half and a game that hurts but I'm frustrated because we had started it well.

We are paying cash for our mistakes in this first half.

These are difficult times for my players, the club, the supporters.

Some are experiencing this situation for the first time, so don't lower your head and prepare for Angers.

There are not 36 speeches.

There are a lot of headwinds; strength of character will make the difference.

"

Brest is also still winless, but the magnificent 25-meter volley from Franck Honorat (73rd) saved him a home defeat against Reims, who opened the scoring by Wout Faes (11th).

Like the Greens, Metz (19th) sank, against Rennes (3-0).

In Saint-Symphorien, Gaëtan Laborde consolidated his position as top scorer in Ligue 1 with a jewel of a seventh goal, with an uncrossed heel.

After a complicated start, the Rennes stadium, like OL on Saturday, is getting closer to European places.
