Results of the day –
Current ranking –
PSG had lost points and 1st place just before the break with a draw in Nice. Some made a big deal of it, but the Parisians are already back on top. Even if only by a small margin. The 4-2 win over Strasbourg, with its well-managed squad and fine teamwork, took advantage of Monaco’s draw with Lille the day before.
Of course, Paris will have to keep up the momentum against stiff competition. All the more so next Sunday, when they travel to the Stade Vélodrome to face 3rd-placed and arch-rivals OM, who have bounced back (after 1 draw and 1 defeat) by taking advantage of a Montpellier in crisis.
The Héraultais are now bottom of the table, while Angers managed to take a point from Toulouse, who can start to worry. As for the European race, Lens are back on track, benefiting from Saint-Etienne’s continuing difficulties and Reims’ defeat at Auxerre.
