Lyon's Ligue 1 winless streak continues with 0-0 draw at Le Havre
PARIS (AP) --- Lyon's winless run in the French league was extended to a fourth
straight game by 10-man Le Havre on Sunday.
Despite playing a man down from the 56th minute, the hosts were the better team
in the 0-0 draw and Lyon now lags two points behind third-place Marseille in
the Ligue 1 standings.
Stephan Zagadou received a straight red card after fouling Endrick. Le Havre,
which moved 10 points away from the automatic relegation spots, hit the
woodwork twice.
Marseille won 1-0 against struggler Auxerre on Friday.
Second-place Lens lost 2-1 at Lorient on Saturday, missing the chance to move
back to the top of the standings.
Paris Saint-Germain, which did not play this weekend, has a one-point lead at
the top and a match in hand. Nantes agreed to postpone their scheduled game on
Sunday in order to give PSG more time to prepare for the Champions League
second leg against Chelsea. PSG is leading 5-2 from the last-16 first leg.
Elsewhere, Mario Sauer scored the winner deep in added time as Toulouse heaped
more misery on Metz.
Sauer's goal sealed Toulouse's 4-3 win and extended last-place Metz's winless
run to a 14th match.
"It was a crazy game," Sauer said. "We deserved it today, and this win was so
important for us."
Paris FC drew 0-0 at Strasbourg.
Supporters clash
Two groups of supporters of Rennes and Lille clashed Saturday night ahead of
Sunday's match.
Radio France reported that police used tear gas and that one fan was injured.
Between 100 and 150 people were involved in the fight.
