Results - Gameweek One

Casualties (3)

It was largely a strong start out of the blocks by the field in this round but a few stragglers fell at the first hurdle. Saturday saw @nudge crash out once again, backing Saint-Etienne ahead of their 4-1 home defeat to Monaco. Commentators have speculated that she may well be going for a perfect set of 0-point performances in protest against the casually misogynistic labelling of the competition. Also out on Saturday was host @RandoEFC, the only person to back runaway league leaders PSG straight off the bat, only to see Leo Messi's opening goal cancelled out by a late equaliser for visitors Lens. Finally, @Pyfish came unstuck on Sunday as Strasbourg were defeated 1-0 in their trip to Lille.

Bad luck, a pointless round and that probably marks the end of our Last Man Standing campaigns this season. Thanks for taking part!

 

Survivors (18)

@CaaC (John) takes the honour this time of being the first to populate Gameweek Two as the only man to back a winner on Sunday, in this case Monaco in their aforementioned 4-1 victory at Saint-Etienne. Rennes justified their position as the overwhelmingly most popular pick for this Gameweek, winning Sunday's first Ligue 1 fixture 5-0 against Lorient, sending @Bluewolf, @Michael, @Lucas, @Stan, @Rucksackfranzose, @Whiskey, @Dan, @Mel81x, @...Dan, @Redcanuck and @Rick all cruising through to next weekend. More were to follow, with @Viva la FCB the sole beneficiary of Nantes' eventful 5-3 win against Bordeaux and @Storts and @Tommy breathing a huge sigh of relief at Khephren Thuram-Ulien's 94th minute winner for Nice against Troyes. Finally, as the evening rolled in, @DeadLinesman, @6666 and @Aladdin were also grateful for a relatively late winning goal for Marseille at Reims which kept them in the game.

Congratulations on bagging your first point of the round, please read ahead for the Gameweek Two fixtures.
