Ligue 1 round-up: Dimitri Payet on target as Marseille thrash St Etienne

Dimitri Payet scored as Marseille secured a resounding 4-0 win over St Etienne at the Stade Velodrome.

Flaurian Thauvin finished smartly from inside the area following fine work down the left by Morgan Samson, before turning provider for Bafetimbi Gomis, who juggled the ball deftly before turning and firing in a volley past Stephane Ruffier.

Thauvin capped off a fine game with a superb solo goal shortly before the hour-mark. Despite appearing marginally offside, the former Newcastle man raced down the right wing before outwitting the defender and slotting a right-foot finish into the net.

Payet added a fourth in the dying moments to cap a comfortable win and leave his side just a point off Bordeaux.

Younousse Sankhare grabbed the only goal as Bordeaux secured a slender victory at Nantes.

The sides were locked in stalemate until the 65th minute, when Francois Kamano won the ball on halfway and reached the edge of the area before teeing up Sankhare.

The Senegalese finished left-footed, though Maxime Dupe might have done better in the home goal.

The win ensured Jocelyn Gourvennec's side would end the round in fifth place and one step closer to continental competition next term.

Crowd trouble forced an early end to the Ligue 1 clash between bottom club Bastia and Lyon following ugly scenes at the Stade Armand Cesari.

The game had been in doubt following a delayed start of nearly an hour following the earlier confrontation, with Lyon tweeting that "Bastia fans had entered the pitch to attack the Lyon players who were finishing their warm-up".

There was little action of note in the 45 minutes played, with Lyon dominating possession but failing to trouble Jean-Louis Leca in the Bastia goal.
