Bastia 1 - 1 Bordeaux: Bordeaux slip up with Ligue 1 draw at Bastia

Bordeaux missed the chance to climb into the top four in Ligue 1 as they were held 1-1 at lowly Bastia.

The hosts took the lead through Thievy Bifouma's well-worked opener but Gaetan Laborde levelled with 12 minutes left.

Bordeaux were unable to find a winner despite facing 10 men for the last eight minutes after Florian Marange's dismissal.

The opener came in the 49th minute, when Allan Saint-Maximin and Gael Danic linked up brilliantly down the left and the latter's cross found Bifouma at the back post to slide in his second goal of the campaign.

Laborde levelled when he dribbled past two players before dinking a fine finish over goalkeeper Jean-Louis Leca.

Marange was shown a straight red for a foul on Jeremy Menez but Bordeaux could not find a winner.
