Soccer Betting Lines

08/05/2007 - Lyon, France (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Lyon, the defending French Ligue 1 champions, got their title defense off to a good start, winning their first contest of the 2007-2007 season 2-0 over Auxerre, Sunday.

Goals by Milan Baros and Karim Benzema gave the champs a spot at the top of the table early.

The first goal was scored in the 33rd minute when Jeremy Toulalan threaded a pass to Baros in stride and he did well, lifting the ball over Auxerre goalkeeper Olivier Sorin.

Benzema doubled the lead 20 minutes from time when Sidney Govou carried the ball into the attacking third dishing to Benzema, who blasted a left-footed rocket past Sorin.

In the other Ligue 1 contest Sunday, Marko Basa got the only goal of the game as Le Mans got their new campaign off to a winning start by beating Ligue 1 newcomers Metz.
