Ligue 1 Is Up and Running

By: Corey | August 11th, 2008

Finally! We had an action packed weekend that saw more goals than all of last year (no not really, but it felt like it!). As I watched highlights of the games this past weekend I was amazed that most of the players looked really fit already. Better pre-season prep or are players taking vacations were they train a little bit too? So here is the rundown of the scores from the weekend:

Final Abbe-Deschamps Auxerre 2 - 1 Nantes
36′ Ireneusz Jelen 1 - 0
68′ 1 - 1 David De Freitas
72′ Julien Quercia 2 - 1

Nantes blog is coming soon, Aditya will keep us up to date on the Canaries, for now check out this match report.

Final Chaban-Delmas Bordeaux 2 - 1 Caen
14′ 0 - 1 Benjamin Nivet
54′ Yoann Gourcuff 1 - 1
80′ Fernando Cavenaghi 2 - 1

Final Marcel-Picot AS Nancy Lorraine 0 - 0 Lille

27′ Gaël Danic (pen) 1 - 0

Final Municipal De Gerland Lyon 3 - 0 Toulouse
