Ligue 1 – PSG widens the gap at the top of the ranking

Winner of RC Lens (1-0), PSG took advantage of AS Monaco's misstep to widen the gap at the top of the Ligue 1 standings.

Before the international break in October, the PSG
occupied second place in Ligue 1behind
AS Monaco. But three weeks later, the Rouge & Bleu regained their leadership position by putting their pursuers at bay. After the victories against RC
Strasbourg (4-2) et Marseille Olympic (0-3), the players of Luis Enrique scored a third success in a row this Saturday against RC Lens (1-0) on the occasion of the 10th day of Ligue 1.

A success which was important after the defeat of
AS Monaco on his lawn facing l’Angers
SCO (0-1). Designated as number one competitor of
PSG in the title race,
l’ASM is on a poor record of one point taken in the last three matches since the return from the break.

PSG are six points ahead at the top of Ligue 1

This Monegasque setback benefited Marseille Olympic. After their slap received in the Classic against the PSG (0-3) last week, the Marseillais won on the lawn of FC Nantes (1-2) this Sunday evening. In other notable results of the day, the LOSC et Olympique Lyonnais
were neutralized (1-1) while l'OGC Nice
imposed itself on the smallest of margins against the Brest Stadium (0-1).

For his part, the Stade Rennais continues its slow descent into hell with a heavy defeat against the AJ Auxerre (4-0). Finally, in the match of the poorly ranked,
Le Havre won his duel against
Montpellier Hérault (1-0), which still occupies its place as red lantern.
