In a Les Canards game untypical for its lack of constant end-to-end nonsense, the hosts were sunk by a horrid deflection when Oxlade-Etc bounced one off a defender’s legs to flummox Alisson. Le Roy’s men were hardly inspirational but did crash one off the bar at the death and will be a bit frustrated to lose this against a Cers team who continue to underwhelm.
