Ligue 1 – Bordeaux humiliated from the start by Clermont (0-2), Reims frustrates Nice and Galtie (0-0), Saint-Etienne hung

Nice – Reims : 0-0

There was also a duel between two new coaches, with ambitious plans and different goals. But neither Christophe Galtier nor Oscar Garcia managed to force the decision, and avoid the first 0-0 of the season. With rookies Todibo, Rosario and Kluivert lined up at kick-off, OGC Nice had reason to believe in better, but was caught by his clumsiness (2 shots on target out of 11).

In the remake of the first day of three seasons ago, the Stade de Reims again managed to make a result on the lawn of the Allianz Riviera. Well in place in their system with five defenders, the Champenois held their role to perfection, and get a good point away. On the side of the Aiglons, the first of Christophe Galtier is a little spoiled with this draw conceded.

• What we remember : The Galtier effect is not an express effect in Nice. It will still take time for the former LOSC to prowl its workforce a little more.

Strasbourg – Angers: 0-2

In a duel between two new coaches, it was Gérald Baticle who took the upper hand over Julien Stéphan. The Angers SCO of the first got the better of the RC Strasbourg of the second, at the end of a pleasant match, punctuated by the chants of the supporters present in the spans of the Meinau. After a first period punctuated by two refused goals, one on each side (Fulgini and Diallo), it was Ismaël Traoré who opened the scoring with a headed goal (57th) on the restart.

The Alsatian spectators believed in a return of their players with the coming into play of the returning Kévin Gameiro (60th), but despite repeated waves, it was the Angevin team that made the break and concluded the meeting thanks to Stéphane Bahoken (81st). Stéphan’s premiere is a disappointment, which contrasts with the joy of the SCO, victorious on the outside.

• What we remember: Baticle and Bahoken played a terrible trick on their former club, which will have to erase these lost points at home. They had cost him a lot last season.

Bordeaux – Clermont: 0-2

The new Bordeaux starts with a bang. Taken over by Gérard Lopez this summer, the Bordeaux club lost at home to Clermont, promoted to Ligue 1 this season (0-1). Mohamed Bayo, coveted by the Girondins, opened the scoring for the Clermontois after a school action concluded at the far post (0-1, 82nd). And Jodel Dossou has finished humiliating the premises by having fun in the defense after a cons (0-2, 90th). Vladimir Petkovic, the new Bordeaux coach, has his work cut out for him.

• What we remember : Clermont ambitions in the game. As long as it lasts!

Saint-Etienne – Lorient: 1-1

Saint-Etienne is coming out of a complicated season. His entry into this new exercise was also. Worried by a strike from Laurent Abergel on the post (6th), led by a powerful recovery from Vincent Le Goff (0-1, 53rd), ASSE owed its salvation to the indestructible Wahbi Khazri to win a point to Geoffroy -Guichard. The Stéphanois attacking midfielder equalized on a penalty validated after the intervention of the VAR (1-1, 70th) before offering a caviar to Mickaël Nadé, whose recovery of the head was returned by the bar (74th).

• What we remember : The character of the Stéphanois. It will probably not be too much this season.
