Stade Rennes striker John Utaka scored a hat-trick to hand Olympique Lyon a shock 4-1 home defeat on Saturday.

It was Ligue 1 leaders Lyon's first defeat since they were beaten by Lille at home in their last game before the winter break in December and only their second of the season.

Second-placed Girondins Bordeaux failed to take full advantage as they were held to a 3-3 home draw by bottom side Metz. Bordeaux are six points behind Lyon.

Lille won 1-0 at off-form Monaco to move up to third. Lyon have 59 points from 27 games, Bordeaux have 53 from 28 and Lille 47 from 28.
