Blanc plays down title chances

Blanc plays down title chances

Bordeaux boss Laurent Blanc has played down his teams chances of lifting the Ligue 1 Championship this week as we head into the final day. Lyon are still clear on top of the table, and Bordeaux face a difficult trip to Lens.

"You have to be realistic in football, we've got only a small chance of being crowned champions," the Bordeaux manager said Friday. "We've done everything possible to make this end of season the most exciting one possible, and that's the way it's turned out - which is great.

"But first of all we have to win at Lens, and that won't be easy because they are fighting relegation. They won't make things easy for us. We have to go there with a winning mentality or else we'll be 2-0 down after 20 minutes and Lyon will be champions."
