Ligue 1: Jussié scores a stunner to seal Bordeaux’s 2-0 win over Lyon
The history between these two teams is a tale of two eras. Historically, Bordeaux have dominated the matchup, winning 20 and drawing 15 of the past 45 Ligue 1 matches. The more recent history tells a different story. In the past 11 matches between these two teams, Bordeaux have only won once. The 1-0 win came in Bordeaux’s title winning 2008/09 season thanks to an Alou Diarra goal. Lyon have won five times with the remaining games ending in stalemates. In recent years, the rivalry has heated up as both teams had credible rights to the Ligue 1 title. This year the tension surrounding the fixture between these two intensified even more with the transfer of Yoann Gourcuff to Lyon and the poor form by both teams in the opening weeks of Ligue 1.
