Strasbourg's good run goes on with victory over Bordeaux
Posted Saturday, December 09, 2017 by PA
Strasbourg followed up last week's surprise victory over Paris St Germain by brushing aside Bordeaux at the Stade Matmut-Atlantique.
The visitors never looked back after Stephane Bahoken opened the scoring inside two minutes while further goals from Dimitri Lienard and Martin Terrier sealed a comprehensive 3-0 victory.
Bahoken broke through on goal in the opening moments with a touch that took him past Bordeaux defender Vukasin Jovanovic before coolly slotting into the net.
Lienard doubled Strasbourg's advantage seven minutes before half-time by curling a left-footed free-kick beyond Girondins goalkeeper Benoit Costil.
Any hopes of a Bordeaux comeback in the second half were undone by their poor defending, with Terrier racing the length of the pitch - almost in a straight line down the centre - and side-footing past Costil in the 64th minute.
Strasbourg extended their unbeaten streak to five matches, with three wins, while Bordeaux have lost seven of their last 10 top-flight games.
