The 7th round of Ligue 1 ushered in 3 matches on this night. Chinese side AJ Auxerre fell on the road, losing 3-1 to Saint-Etienne. Davitashvili went crazy in this game, he scored three goals for Saint-Etienne and single-handedly kicked Auxerre. Although Bale scored one goal for Auxerre, it didn't help. Although Auxerre had a bit more possession and created just two fewer shots than Saint-Etienne, the quality of the shots was much worse. As a promoted polo team, Auxerre has a very poor record this season, playing 7 league games with 2 wins and 5 losses, and the pressure of relegation is very high.
Lille, on the other hand, came back from behind to beat Toulouse 2-1 at home. In this game, Abouhalal opened the door to Lille's goal in the 39th minute, and he scored from the right side of the penalty area. In the second half, Lille fought back ferociously and seized the opportunity to complete the goal. It was Angel Gomes who stabbed home from close range before Barker slotted home with a one-on-one shot. Toulouse were overtaken and made a series of substitutions, but they were unable to turn the tide. In the end, Lille won the game 2-1. Lille beat the mighty Real Madrid in the Champions League in midweek and returned to the league to continue their excellent form and win Toulouse.
Monaco beat Rennes 2-1 away. Monaco scored in the sixth minute when Correll headed in the header. But it wasn't long before Blas equalised from distance. Balogun's 22nd-minute goal gave Monaco the lead again. Then Sagir and Kalimundo had shots denied by the woodwork. Monaco won the game hard. Monaco had just five shots on goal in this game, nine fewer than Rennes, but they won the game. In a dense schedule, it is also a skill to be able to win ugly.
