The Parisian club fell to fourth place after a fourth game in a row without a win on Monday.
Paris FC could not do better than a draw against Dijon (2-2) on Monday at home at the end of the 32nd day of Ligue 2 and remains at the foot of the podium (the ranking here), losing ground in the fight for the rise. Under pressure after the victories of Ajaccio, Auxerre and Sochaux on Saturday, far behind the leader Toulouse who have an eight-point lead over their first pursuer, the PFC had to win to stay in contact with second place synonymous with direct accession to the League 1, but the Parisians failed for lack of desire first, then concentration.
Opposite, the Dijonnais, who no longer have any goals six days to go, started the match very well. After creating the best chances, the DFCO logically opened the scoring in the 27th minute by Aurélien Scheidler, served on the verge of offside by Philippoteaux.
Julien Lopez sees double, but…
The exit on the Parisian side of the young Yoan Koré, 17, who was not very successful, and the Uruguayan Jonathan Iglesias at the start of the second period changed the face of the match. With a pressing in place and better organized offensives, the resident of Charléty kept his opponent in his half of the field. The recurring ball losses were quickly deadly for the Dijonnais, with the equalizer of Julien Lopez in conclusion of a number of Boutaïb in the surface (56th, 1-1). The same Lopez drove the point home in the 65th on a quick transition.
Paris FC, all in control, then seemed able to manage the end of the match before a culpable relaxation in defense, Scheidler alone at the reception heading towards Philippoteaux, also alone, for the equalizer (72nd, 2-2 ).
The banner of the Parisian supportersEvery game is a finalcarried even more weight at the final whistle. The club is now fourth with 57 points and therefore play-off, tied with fifth, Sochaux.
