Time to talk about today’s three matches…
Rennes 0-3 Valenciennes
Rennes dominated from the off, having a Peter Hansson goal wrongly dissalowed, followed by numerous chances including an Ekoko shot that hit the bar. The first goal came a little way into the second half, when Valenciennes’ new center-back Dianbobo Balde headed in from close range. This [...]

AJ Auxerre 2-1 Montpellier Hérault SC
Montpellier are beginning to lose their sheen. It seems they can’t hold up against traditional tough midtable sides like Rennes and Auxerre. They’ve also lost the surprise effect. Opposing managers now have an idea of what they’re up against, and have discovered the club’s weaknesses. Getting Ireneusz Jelen [...]

By: Thomas | 2 Comments
Remember how everyone was saying this would be the Bundesliga’s year to push Serie A out of it’s number three spot? I think we’ve officially got a new candidate. This week contained monumental victories for Ligue 1. On Tuesday Lyon became only the second French club ever to win at Anfield, and are now undefeated [...]
