On Sunday, OL women definitively validated first place in the championship. On the other hand, he does not yet know his opponent in the final phase.
There was little doubt about it for several weeks already, it is now official. Last weekend, D1 delivered some lessons. Paris Saint-Germain’s draw at Guingamp (3-3), coupled with Lyon’s demonstration on Sunday evening at Saint-Etienne (1-6), definitely offered first place in the championship to Sonia’s players Bompastor. With 58 points gleaned in 20 days, OL will not be taken over by PSG (49) since there are two games left to play.
Olympique Lyonnais will therefore finish in first place, which is no longer of great importance. Since the overhaul of the competition, the four best teams in the regular phase must go through the play-offs to designate the champion. As leaders, Wendie’s teammates Renard will face the fourth on May 12.
Four teams for one place
The name of their opponent is not yet known. In addition to PSG and Paris FC, who should be ranked in this order, even if the PFC still has one shot to play, the last ticket will be contested between four teams. Reims and Fleury, respectively 31 and 30 units, are best placed.
But Montpellier (26) and ASSE (25, one game less) still have a small chance of climbing the hierarchy on the wire. Answer on Wednesday May 8 at the end of the afternoon, after the final multiplex, that of the 22nd and last day of D1.
