The 22nd day of Ligue 1 was profitable for Nantes and Strasbourg in the second part of the table.
The Canaries managed to win in Ajaccio, thanks to two goals scored in the second half by Guessand (64e) and Blas (89e, on penalty). A success that allows them to distance themselves from the red zone, pushed back to seven lengths now.
First relegated from the top of his 17e rank, Strasbourg also gives itself a little air by dominating Montpellier on a double from Diallo (1time45e). And this despite the expulsion of Aholou (33e). The RCSA thus ahead of the ACA on goal difference and now find themselves one length from the waterline embodied by Troyes, defeated the day before at home by Lyon (1-3).

Auxerre and Angers close the march at four and nine points respectively from the Strasbourg-Ajaccio tandem. AJA forced Reims to share the points (0-0). A goalless draw also between Lorient and Angers – after 13 consecutive defeats in the league for the SCO. The Hakes for their part thus remain confined to the seventh level, four units from the first European sesame for the time being held by Rennes, fifth.
