Saint-Étienne beats Reims in the last round of Ligue 1.
Solid and efficient, Saint-Étienne won in Reims (0-2), this Saturday, during the 33rd day of Ligue 1.
A fearsome match that started perfectly for the Greens with a brilliant strike from Tardieu under Diouf’s bar (3rd). A great start for the Forez club, who were falling back and could thank Larsonneur, who was decisive in front of Tia. Before the break, Cardona gave the Forez players a breather by shooting past the Reims goalkeeper after a previous save (0-2, 42nd).
With the hardest part already over, the Greens formed a solid back four to avoid being beaten. A tactic that, unsurprisingly, worked against a team lacking confidence despite good results in recent weeks. Saint-Étienne hasn’t said its last word and will try to secure its survival in a week against Toulouse. The match of the season in the Chaudron!
