Nice made it two wins on the bounce in Ligue 1 with a
comprehensive 6-1 victory over Bordeaux, while Saint-
Etienne moved up to second place.
Hatem Ben Arfa netted a brace as Nice came from behind to
demolish 10-man Bordeaux 6-1 in Ligue 1 on Wednesday.
Despite falling behind to Jaroslav Plasil's early goal, Nice were
ahead before half-time courtesy of Valere Germain and Mickael
Le Bihan.
Enzo Crivelli saw red for the visitors shortly after the restart,
with Nicolas Pallois' own goal compounding their misery
moments later, before Ben Arfa's double and Alexandre
Mendy's late effort capped off a fine night for Nice, who rise to
eighth.
Saint-Etienne moved to within one point of leaders Paris Saint-
Germain as Thomas Ayasse's own goal gave them a 1-0 win
over Troyes for their fifth consecutive league victory.
Substitute Michy Batshuayi salvaged a 1-1 draw for Marseille at
nine-man Toulouse, making it two draws on the bounce for
Michel's men.
Rennes, unbeaten since their opening-day defeat to Bastia,
could only muster a 1-1 draw at lowly Gazelec Ajaccio as they
missed out on the chance to move into second place, with
Giovanni Sio equalising in the 89th minute.
Youngster Aldo Kalulu marked his full debut for Lyon with a goal
during a 2-0 victory over Bastia, while Lorient sealed their third
straight Ligue 1 win with a 2-0 triumph over Caen.
