The LFB fixture list has become slightly confusing recently with teams rearranging matches.
The 20th round of games was played after two games from the 21st round had been played:
Montpellier ended a domestic three-game losing streak in beating Villeneuve d'Ascq (76-74). Sandra Dijon-Gérardin was the match winner for Montpellier with a game-high 23 points.
In the second match, Nantes-Rezé lost at home to USO Mondeville (57-66).
The other games from round 21 have been played on Wednesday, 17 March 2010:

COB Calais move clear of the relegation zone with a road victory against Toulouse(81-70), while Aix-en-Provence's worries continue as they fell on the road (71-74) to Basket Landes.
Virginie Bremont, player-of-the-match performance with 22 points, 6 assists and 5 steals, enabled Armentières to beat Limoges (73-58). With defeat Limoges are the first team to relegated.
Nantes-Rezé, playing at home, were hoping to reverse their defeat in round 6 and stay in the top 4.
The game itself was not exciting for 35 minutes with defence being the order of the day.
The game was tied (5-5) after five minutes. Then Mondeville managed to take control of the game (15-7) by the end of the first quarter.
Mondeville maintained the advantage up to the interval (26-21) before increasing their lead during the third quarter (44-31).
Nothing happened for the first five minutes of the final quarter as neither side scored.
The game finally came to life during the final five minutes as the flood gates opened with three-pointers flying from all over the court.
Nantes outscored Mondeville 21-16 during the closing phase but Mondeville won the match (66-57). With this victory they move back into fourth place in the domestic standings.
