“sèt à ges, se n’en gagno ges" is a Provençal term that means « 7-0 wins nothing ». 7 is considered an unlucky number and the saying refers to the fact that a team that reaches 7-0 often won’t win the game.
The French equivalent is “sept à point on n’en gagne point” – from “les mots du jeu de boules en Provence”.
Regards,
Ray
