In Saturday’s other big game, Lyon defeated local rivals St. Etienne 4-1 to gain revenge for a 1-0 home defeat to Les Verts earlier in the campaign, with Bafa Gomis, Michel Bastos, Jimmy Briand and an own goal giving cancelling out Carlos Bocanegra’s opener.
Paris St. Germain’s title hopes were hit by a disappointing 0-0 draw at home to Lens. Bordeaux lost to Caen 2-1 whilst leaders Lille have a chance to increase their lead to six points if they can beat Toulouse on Sunday.
