PARIS, France — Brazilian defender Henrique scored twice to help keep alive Bordeaux’s title hopes with a 3-0 home victory over struggling Strasbourg on Sunday.
Henrique, who was his side’s matchwinner when they won the League Cup final against Lyon a year ago, struck after 28 and 42 minutes.
Argentine striker Fernando Cavenaghi scored his 10th goal in 10 league outings to make it 3-0 15 minutes from time.
Bordeaux stay second in the table, trailing leaders Lyon by six points with nine matches to go.
Henrique headed in Alejandro Alonso’s corner kick to put Bordeaux in front and his second strike came in almost identical fashion.
Cavenaghi snapped up a poor Strasbourg clearance to add the third goal. E-mail to a friend
