As in Ligue 2, the next day will only take place in two weeks because of the Coupe de France.
This National championship is definitely very unpredictable, and above all even more difficult than Ligue 2 in its homogeneity. This is not necessarily a discovery, it is even a permanent confirmation and Friday evening provided new proof, with the totally unexpected defeat of leader Nancy at home in front of Paris 13 Atletico (1-2) who were stagnating in penultimate position and had only won one match in ten this season. Conversely, the people of Nancy had only lost one and were therefore at their expense. Pablo Correa pleads for a day without in terms of realism: “Efficiency has spoken, I don't have much to add. Everyone saw that we gave ourselves the means to win this match against an opponent who waited for us, but we didn't do it. We had the chances, however, the first goal we conceded was a harbinger of a bad evening.”
A hat-trick from Benkaid, new top scorer
Except that its runner-up Concarneau experienced the same misfortune, also at home and with the same score against Dijon (1-2), which allows the Lorraine to maintain their first place and even two points ahead, the third Orléans having also was hooked to Quveilly-Rouen (1-1). The good deal is therefore undoubtedly for the Dijonnais who, with this second consecutive success in Brittany, take fourth place and are just two points behind Concarneau – and therefore four lengths behind Nancy.
Like ASNL last week, DFCO is the only team in the top 6 to have won, and it is also thanks to Rouen who triumphed over fifth Boulogne-sur-Mer (3-1) for the first of Régis Brouard on the Normandy bench and moves up to thirteenth place, with the help of a hat-trick from Hicham Benkaid who thus joins the head of the championship scorers ranking (six goals in total). Or thanks to Versailles which held on to the sixth Sochaux (1-1). Behind, the bad series continues for Valenciennes, doubled by Bourg-en-Bresse (1-2) in seventh position with a victory in eight games for the Northerners, who definitely fail to confirm their excellent start (three victories in a row for to start).
