They will still be six clubs next week to play their future in L 2. Amiens is no longer in this case. Thanks to a brilliant Gaël Kakuta, the Picards (12th, 47 points) won 3-1 against Quevilly-Rouen and secured a new season in the division. Annecy will remember this evening for a long time. Thanks to their success against Bordeaux (1-0), the Haut-Savoyards (14th, 45 points) are perfectly placed in the perspective of the last day. A point against Paris FC next week should be enough to keep them going.
It will probably take a victory in Pau next Friday against Caen to ensure a permanent stay in L 2. But Didier Tholot’s men offered themselves a breath of fresh air this Friday evening by beating Rodez (3-2) thanks in particular to a double from Yanis Begraoui. Driven by the efficiency of the player on loan from the TFC (9 goals in 17 matches) and by a once again stunning Mayron George (1 goal, 1 ist), the Palois secured a logical success against a Rodez (16th, 43 points), far from being maintained yet (travel to Bordeaux during the last day…).
In this part of the table, the bad operation is for Dijon. After opening the scoring by Marley Aké, Pascal Dupraz’s men were joined by Paris FC (1-1). The DFCO (18th, 42 points), still undefeated with their new coach (4 wins, 4 draws), will play their future in Le Havre next week but the Burgundians no longer have their destiny in their hands…
Laval, winner of Nîmes, thanks in particular to a new goal from the surprising Simon Elisor (8th goal in 19 matches), will have to beat Amiens and also rely on failures from their direct opponents to maintain themselves next Friday.
