Angers defeated Saint Etienne 4-2 at home and got their first win in the league. Angers, who have struggled to score goals and win games except in the first 2 weeks, broke this trend yesterday. This win gave them a good morale boost.
Brest managed to beat Reims 2-1 away from home. Reims started the season well but with this defeat they have been struggling to win for 2 weeks now. The opponents he defeated are not very strong. They drew with PSG and Marseille, but this time it was difficult for them to win.
Both teams managed to achieve positive results in week 9, and the victory certainly shows the potential that they should be able to maintain in the next match against Nice and Monaco, for angers, a 4-2 victory over Saint Etienne can be a turning point and motivation for them to move up to a better rank, currently the angers are still stuck in the bottom rank, so it is very important for them to be able to continue to maintain their current form to can move away from the relegation zone.
Brest's victory over Reims surprised me very much, because indeed compared to Brest, Reims' performance so far is still better and even Reims has a better position than Brest in the current ligue 1 standings, Brest started the match quite well, especially after getting a penalty and scoring a goal, they actually played harder in adding to the advantage to end the match with a score of 2-1.
