Europe for Montpellier, the descent in D2 for Metz. Here are the first lessons of the 21st day in D1 where positions are now frozen at the top of the table with Olympique de Marseille which definitely ensures its fourth place in the standings. A little lower, Bordeaux and Saint-Etienne will tremble until the end and especially compete for the maintenance on the final day on May 25.


Montpellier Hérault SC - ASJ Soyaux: 10-0


=> Montpellier returns to Europe


Olympique Lyonnais - Paris Saint-Germain: 3-0


=> The first round for the Lyonnaises


Girondines de Bordeaux - FCF Juvisy: 1-1


In front of Juvisy, Bordeaux needed points to keep hoping. After a win pulled on the lawn of Marseille, the Girondines had to look for a result against Juvisy before moving on the lawn of Paris Saint-Germain.


The first minutes already see their share of opportunities with a first strike by Clara Matéo pushed back by Elisa Launay. In the wake, Emelyne Laurent could have opened the scoring by countering the release of Céline Deville and the ball bounces off the post. Elisa Launay is regularly solicited in the first part of this meeting. She intervenes again in front of Clara Matéo before taking out a strike from Elisa de Almeida.


In the 31st minute the goalkeeper from Bordeaux, made a new parade on a strike Gaëtane Thiney. But a few moments later, Juvisy manages to open the score by Inès Jaurena, who scores with a header (32 '). In the second half, Juvisy could have kicked off with a shot on the post Thiney (49th) and a vigilant Elisa Launay on his line.


An open door for a Bordeaux return that comes at the start of the last quarter of an hour by the inevitable Emelyne Laurent who scored the last four goals of Bordeaux this season and who manages to score on a service in depth (75th).


This goal allows Bordeaux to snatch a point, important but for the moment insufficient for maintenance. The Girondines will have to make a result in Paris to hope to stay in D1, but nothing seems impossible for Bordeaux who seem transcended at the end of the season.




Olympique Marseille - AS Saint-Etienne: 3-1


Saint-Étienne sees Bordeaux return and could not take his points on the field of Olympique Marseille. A twelfth defeat this season confirms a terrible dynamic for ASSE who took only two points on the return phase of the championship. For their part, the players of Christophe Parra have definitely secured their fourth place in the standings with an eleventh win this season.


A result that took shape from the first minutes of play with two goals scored in the first five minutes of play. The first is signed Charlotte Lozé in the second minute. The Olympian striker finds herself alone and can chain control over a cushioning and striking that misleads Mylène Chavas. It is then Viviane Asseyi who is illustrated and marks after having combined with Charlotte Lozé (5th).


An advantage that the OM players will manage to keep in a match committed but where the Stephanoises will have few opportunities to return to the mark.On one of the few alerts, Kelly Gadéa makes a decisive intervention on his line to the hour of play and preserves the score in favor of Marseille.


In stoppage time, Viviane Asseyi, OM's top scorer this season, achieved a double and temporarily boosted Marseille's lead. Two minutes later, Audrey Chaumette managed to score for St. Etienne (90 + 3) but too late to reverse the trend in this game.


Under pressure for maintenance, Saint-Etienne retains a particular goal-average favorable, and still ahead of Bordeaux. A small advantage that will necessarily strengthen in two weeks against Guingamp.


ASPTT Albi - Rodez Aveyron Football: 1-3


=> Rodez sweeps his hold in the derby


Before Guingamp - FC Metz: 6-2


The adventure in D1 Metz will stop again after one season, like two years ago during the first climb. A descent after a second part of the season that did justice to a Metz team that had the potential to make a much better season.


Regrets, they may not be on this match where Metz was quickly led to score, conceding three goals in the first period. It was Margaux Bueno who opened the scoring in the 15th minute before Léa le Garrec and Faustine Robert allowed the Bretonnes to take off.

If Julie Wojdyla allows Metz to reduce the gap (66th), Agathe Ollivier gives three goals before Guingamp two minutes later (68th). It is then goals of Maevane Drozo (73rd) and Desire Oparanozie that will allow the players of Sarah M'Barek to ensure victory. In the end, Ophélie Cordier will add a second goal for Metz, his first in D1.An anecdotal victory for Guingamp even if it erases some of the regrets after the game lost to Juvisy. For Metz, she turns the last meeting against Lyon in a friendly match, the two teams have nothing to play now. The En Avant players will continue to play the roles of referees in the race to maintain, this time on the lawn of Vertes.
