Ligue 1. Highlights of the last match, latest results, scoreboards, scorers of the day and updated ranking… Here is what to remember from this new day of Ligue 1, this Friday, April 8, 2022.
13:45 – Rennes wants to continue its momentum
Eliminated from the Europa League Conference, Stade Rennais was able to rest this week and prepare well for its trip to Reims this Saturday during the 31st day of Ligue 1. Undefeated since a match at the Parc des Princes on February 11 (1-0 ), Rennes, currently 3rd in L1, hopes to win to put pressure on OM, who will host Montpellier on Sunday evening (8:45 p.m.), but also not to see Nice, 4th, return to the standings.
13:00 – Lorient-Pélissier: “A perfect evening”
Unlike the Stéphanois, Christophe Pélissier, the coach of Lorient, was delighted with the victory of his team in front of the Versts (6-2), Friday evening at the start of the 31st day of Ligue 1: “It’s a perfect evening, in addition to the communion that there was with the public, he confessed after the meeting. We felt that there was a good energy. (…) It is the strength of this group, it will never let go, even when the winds are against us. We were well organized, we knew where we could hurt them. It’s interesting for a coach when what we put in place succeeds. It’s a very good victory. Now we have to show humility, there are 7 matches left, there are still points to go. Everything is not perfect, otherwise we would not be there in the standings. But what has changed is efficiency.”
12:15 – ASSE-Dupraz: “It’s a collective sinking”
AS Saint-Etienne coach Pascal Dupraz assumed his responsibility after the defeat of the Greens in Lorient (6-2), Friday evening at the start of the 31st day of Ligue 1: “I explain the defeat by my responsibility That of the coach is to repeat to the players that football is respected, he explained at the microphone of Prime Video. When you make this start, you must not add any on the pretext that you are leading 2 -0. You have to respect the fundamentals, it’s essential and that’s what we haven’t been able to do. (…) It’s a collective shipwreck. It’s a sin of pride, a conceited attitude, not an attitude befitting a professional player. On the road to redemption, there are seven games left, and whatever the scores, we are going to be roadblocks after this day. It is a bankruptcy, I regret it, and I assume, because it is my responsibility.”
11:30 – ASSE-Bouanga: “6-2, it’s a shame”
Saint-Etienne striker Denis Bouanga did not mince his words after the defeat of AS Saint-Etienne in Lorient (6-2), Friday evening at the start of the 31st day of Ligue 1: “Frankly, we were useless Shit, he said at the microphone of Prime Video at the final whistle. We thought we had done everything by leading 2-0, and in the end, we were simply killed. 6-2, c “It’s a shame. Shame on us. We’re putting a whole club to shame. There’s nothing to say. It’s just nothing.”
10:45 – Lorient crushed Saint-Etienne
The match between Lorient and Saint-Etienne was a real shock in view of maintaining Ligue 1 this Friday evening at the start of the 31st day of L1.

Koné (45th+1 and 65th), Le Fée (61st) and Boisgard (89th). A success that allows Lorient, still 16th in the standings, to count 4 points ahead of the club from Saint-Etienne, 18th and roadblocker.
