The 9th day of Ligue 2 benefited, this Friday evening, Grenoble which is the new provisional runner-up to Paris FC due to its success against Metz (2-0).
Two missed opportunities to put pressure on Paris FC. The Ligue 2 leader, who will play Monday evening at Troyes, can smile. Even before their meeting, two of their closest competitors, namely Dunkerque and FC Metz (2 points) got into trouble this Friday evening. On the Laval field, which was able to bounce back after its defeat against Paris FC, Dunkirk conceded its third defeat of the season following the achievements of Malik Tchokounté, Malik Sellouki and Mamadou Camara (on the locals’ three shots). If Vincent Sasso reduced the gap for the visitors and Christ-Owen Kouassi Bathele scored against his side, it was not enough to even take a point from a largely dominant but beaten Dunkirk. , and which saw Gaëtan Courtet miss a penalty in the 91st minute (3-2). For its part, FC Metz was not happy either and lost to Grenoble, new runner-up to Paris FC following a new goal from the inevitable Pape Meïssa Ba and the break made by Junior Olaitan (2- 0).
Red Star and Caen neutralize each other, Rodez wins against Martigues
There were no goals during the match between Bastia and Clermont (0-0), which necessarily does not suit anyone in this post-international break resumption and, for its part, Pau went to win at Guingamp on the smallest of margins (0-1). On the pitch of a voluntary Red Star, the Ile-de-France club and Caen had to share the points (2-2). From the Orange Vélodrome in Marseille (record of three defeats and a draw) to the Jean-Laville stadium in Gueugnon, nothing changed for Martigues who fell to a superior Rodez (0-2).
As mentioned above, Paris FC can therefore smile this Friday while the trip to Troyes on Monday evening could allow it to increase its lead over Dunkirk and Metz and perhaps even over Lorient, which will host Annecy on Saturday (9 p.m.). At 2 p.m., a little earlier, Amiens will host Ajaccio for this 9th day of Ligue 2.
