Three days before the end of the Ligue 1 season, Bixente Lizarazu is the exceptional guest of 100% Girondins, this Monday. The club, on the verge of relegation, did not won only 5 games in 35 days and has 18 losses. The last, at home against Nice (0-1), did not restore the team’s confidence. The day after this defeat, look back on a complicated season with the 98 world champion, trained in Bordeaux, of which he was the defender from 1988 to 1996.
At a time when the Girondins de Bordeaux risk returning to Ligue 2, they were, just 30 years ago crowned champions of France in the second division at the end of an epic season, during which they shared first place with Strasbourg. In this Bordeaux team led by Gernot Rohr were sacred players like Gaëtan Huard, Jean-Luc Dogon, Didier Sénac, Michel Milojević, Bernard Gimenez, Stéphane Plancque, Jean-Marc Ferratge, Christophe Dugarry, Philippe Fargeon and Bixente Lizarazu for whom this season remains a great memory in his career.
