US Boulogne secured a narrow 1-0 home victory over SC Bastia in a French Ligue 2 match played on September 17, 2025. A solitary goal was enough to separate the two sides at the Stade de la Libération, giving Boulogne a precious three points in their campaign. The only goal of the game came in the first half, likely from a set-piece or a moment of individual quality in a tightly contested midfield battle. Bastia pushed for an equalizer in the second half, dominating possession and creating several half-chances, but they found the Boulogne defense and goalkeeper in resilient form. The match was not without controversy, as Bastia may have felt aggrieved by a refereeing decision or a disallowed goal that could have changed the outcome. This result provided a significant boost to Boulogne's early-season morale and league position, while Bastia was left to reflect on their lack of cutting edge in the final third. The Boulogne coach hailed his team's defensive discipline, while the Bastia manager lamented his side's wastefulness in front of goal.
