Cheikh Diabaté once again proved to be the savior for Girondins de Bordeaux on Sunday in their match against Montpellier. Despite Montpellier being reduced to 10 men early in the game due to the expulsion of Jebbour in the 20th minute, Francis Gillot’s men struggled to secure the win.
However, the timely intervention of Cheikh Diabaté made the difference, with the Malian striker scoring a crucial goal in the 75th minute. This goal proved decisive, as Montpellier, with a numerical disadvantage, found it challenging to trouble Bordeaux’s goalkeeper Carrasso. Later in the match, Obraniak added another goal, sealing the victory for Girondins with a final score of 2-0.
This marks Diabaté’s sixth goal of the season in Ligue 1, highlighting his importance to the Bordeaux squad. With this win, Bordeaux extends their unbeaten streak to seven matches and climbs to a provisional 13th place in the league standings. Diabaté’s consistent contributions have played a vital role in Girondins de Bordeaux’s recent success in Ligue 1.
