After the sluggish victory of Olympique Lyonnais against Stade Brestois last night, the 26th day of Ligue 1 continued this Saturday. It offered a duel in the second half of the table between Reims (13th) and AS Saint-Étienne (15th). The first foray was to be credited to the Greens with a strike against Neyou (11th). Dominating, but sluggish in the last opposing meters, Claude Puel’s players also brought danger via a free kick from Bouanga (28th). Reims responded with the scissors of Mbuku (29th).
Despite an attempt by Khazri (39th), the two teams were back to back at the break. Reims returned from the locker room with good intentions and a dangerous center from Foket (51st). Better, the visitors nevertheless underwent the enemy incursions (53rd, 61st, 62nd and 70th), but it was to better punish. On a corner hit on the left, El Bilal Touré appeared at the near post to score (1-0, 72nd). An important goal for David Guion’s players who were heading for success. It was without counting Charles Abi who was able to equalize at the end of the match (1-1, 89th). With this draw, the two teams remain back to back.
