Sochaux 0-3 Bordeaux

Sochaux's relegation worries were worsened this afternoon as they suffered a 3-0 defeat to Bordeuax in Ligue 1 action.

The visitors took an early lead courtesy of a 12th-minute Jussie strike, which came after a fine pass from Nicolas Maurice-Belay.

Maurice-Belay added his own name to the scoresheet when he converted from the penalty spot after Sebastien Roudet committed a foul in the box.

The Sochaux substitute was sent off in the same incident, and his side's task was made even harder when Modibo Maiga saw red just three minutes later.

Henri Saivet compounded a miserable afternoon for the hosts when he completed the scoring with a third on 70 minutes.

Sochaux are still a point from safety following the result while Bordeaux remain 8th in the table.
