FC Toulouse is the first to be promoted to the French elite league Ligue 1.
With a 2-0 (1-0) win against Chamois Niortais on Monday, coach Philippe Montanier’s team took the decisive step towards returning after two years in the second division.
With an eleven-point lead over AJ Auxerre in third place, the team that have dominated throughout the season can no longer be denied success with three games to go.
