Stade Lavallois will have to wait a while longer before securing their first success at home. The Tango were beaten by Bordeaux, 2-1 at the end of the 10th day of Ligue 2.
Bordeaux open the scoring in the 5th minute
The Girondins de Bordeaux opened the scoring in the 5th minute following a corner, taken from a fine strike by Joshua Maja. The Nigerian striker scored his sixth goal of the season and put Bordeaux ahead 1-0 at the break.
Julien Maggiotti equalized early in the second half. But Bordeaux regained the advantage fifteen minutes later. The end of the game will leave many regrets for Laval residents who were denied a goal by Durbant for an offside position. And in additional time, Durbant was jostled in the area but the referee of the meeting did not whistle the penalty expected by the Laval residents.
In the Ligue 2 standings, Bordeaux takes the lead while Laval remains in 13th place before moving to Grenoble this Saturday, October 8.
