Bordeaux title hopes suffer joltFrench league champions and Champions League second phase participants Bordeaux saw their hopes of another domestic crown suffer a setback as they went down 2-0 at Lille on Sunday. The loss left Lyon, the side Laurent Blanc's men dislodged last season after seven championship wins on the bounce, with every hope of snatching top spot as they prepared for a late tussle with Marseille. Bordeaux have 25 points from 12 matches but this third reverse of the campaign following second-half goals from Yohan Cabaye and Florent Balmont Florent Balmont (born February 2, 1980 in Sainte-Foy-lès-Lyon) is a French football midfielder, currently playing for French team OGC Nice.

Grenoble remain seven points behind second bottom Le Mans, who went down at home 1-0 to high-riding Auxerre.
