    Bordeaux: Huard (5), Croci (3), Senac (4), Dogon (4), Guerit (3),
              Lucas (3), Zidane (5), Lizarazu (4), Marquet (4), Dugarry (4

              Aubame (2), Goudet (2), Bertin (2), Rio (3), Roux (3
              (Gourouli '65)), Tiehi (4).
    Girondins celebrated the New Year with hammering Le Havre at Parc
    Lescure. Christophe Dugarry set up Rhonan Salaun for the opener
    after ten minutes. Didier Senac settled matters on the stroke of half-time
    and Zinedine Zidane sent a wonderful lob over Fabien Piveteau for the
    third with just ten minutes to go. A very fine display by the home side
    which give quite some hope for some success at the end of the season.

Stade Malherbe Caen-C-B-N    4         Lille OSC                     3
    Gravelaine '2                           Oleksiak '27
    Gravelaine '32                          Nouma '40-p.k.
    Dedebant '39                            Lebourgeois '64-o.g.
    Dedebant '44
    Att.: 7171
    A really goalfest at Venoix! Xavier Gravelaine snatched the first
    after just two minutes while the visitors got the equalizer midways through
    the half. Gravelaine pulled Caen one up again and Stephane Dedebant
    made it 3-1. But, Nuoma pulled one back from the spot before the interval.
    The second half action occured all action in one minute with one goal
    to each team. An incredible score! Still, it seems Lille's scoring
    problems are history.

RC Lens                      0         Nimes Olympique               0
    Att.: 11326
    Once again the fans at Felix-Bollaert didn't see a home win. Lens
    had most of the chances, but failed at the final touch.

Olympique de Marseille       5         SC Toulon et du Var           2
    Boksic '2                               Meyrieu '23
    Voeller '18                             Meyrieu '40
    Voeller '30
    Voeller '64
    Boksic '82
    Att.: 17000
    L'Oheme got their revenge for the loss in Lille with a 5-2 trashing
    of local rivals Toulon. Alen Boksic and Rudi Voeller put the home side
    two up inside the first twenty, but Frederic Meyrieu pulled one back
    which Voeller replied to with his second. Meyrieu gave Toulon some hope
    in the dressing room with his second. Voeller and Boksic killed the
    match in the second half to end up the high scoring affair.

AS Monaco                    4         AJ Auxerre                    0
    Klinnsmann '7
    Klinnsmann '32
    Klinnsmann '52
    Klinnsmann '57
    Att.: 9000
    Monaco went top of the league with a tremendous crashing of title
    contenders Auxerre. Juergen Klinnsmann had a big show and scored all four
    goals. He scored twice in the first half and added two more in just
    four minutes in the start of the second half. Auxerre were truly
    outclassed.

Montpellier Herault SC       0         Toulouse FC                   1
                                            Bancarel '60
    Att.: 8000
    Pickeu (Montpellier) red card 68th.
    Anthony Bancarel scored a break-away goal to give TFC both points while
    heavy Montpellier pressure didn't pay off all match. A truly undeserved
    score if you look on the play, but it really shows the strength of Serge
    Delmas men.

FC Nantes-Loire-Atlantique   1         Olympique Lyonnais            0
    Ouedec '48
    Att.: 16050
    The young Canaries opened the New Year with returning to winning ways
    by beating the draw specialists from Lyon. Nicolas Ouedec scored the
    lone goal early in the second half.

AS Saint-Etienne             2         FC Metz                       0
    Mendy '45
    Luhovy '66
    Att.: 15000
    (Played the 10th due to fog on the Saturday)

FC Sochaux-Montbeliard       1         Paris-Saint-Germain FC        3
    Clement '83                             Weah '52
                                            Fournier '71
                                            Ginola '79
    Att.. 6239
    Sochaux held PSG for one half, but afterwards the visitors showed
    that they are still challenging for the title. Georges Weah got the first,
    a real beauty and Laurent Fournier and David Ginola made it
    three-nil. Benjamin Clement got first at the second post on a free kick
    from Alain Caveglia to pull one back, late in the game.

RC Strasbourg                0         US Valenciennes-Anzin         0
    Att.: 15927
    Oosterveer (Valenciennes) red card in 55th.
    The normally strong home side failed to score home at La Meinau when a
    well-disciplined visiting side kept Racing away from their goal and
    the match ended scoreless.
