Dijon crushed Metz 4-2 on Monday evening at home in the closing match of Matchday 8 in Ligue 2, securing a third consecutive victory that propels DFCO to seventh place in the standings.

The Burgundy side settled the matter in the first half, scoring three goals in the space of thirteen minutes. Vargas-Rios opened the scoring in the 19th minute, Lago doubled the lead five minutes later, then Tavares made it three at the 32nd. Fall pulled one back for the Lorrainers just before the break (44th), but Bernard extended the advantage again in the 69th. The Metz striker grabbed a brace in added time (88th), but it was too late to change the outcome.

With this victory, Dijon moves to within one point of the playoff promotion places. Metz, meanwhile, records a third match without a win and drops to tenth place, two points behind their opponents from this evening.
