Lens resists Paris FC

Surprised by Metz four days ago, Lens returned to victory this Sunday as part of the 11th day of Ligue 1. Against Lorient in Bollaert, the Sang et Or achieved a flattering success with a score of 3-0.

Edouard (6th), Saïd (77th) and Baidoo (89th) struck in favor of the Artésiens – Bamba having missed the mark for the Merlus by sending his potentially equalizing penalty onto the post (64th).

So here is RC Lens back on the third step of the podium, level with OM and two lengths behind the Parisian leader. The Lorientais for their part remain 16th and barrage.

Lens-Lorient, the lines at kick-off

The Lensois eleven: Risser – Gradit, Baidoo, Sarr – Aguilar, Thomasson, Sangaré, Udol – Thauvin, Edouard, Saïd.

The Lorient eleven: Mvogo – Silva, Talbi, Yongwa – Le Bris, Abergel, Avom Ebong, Kouassi – Tosin, Bamba, Makengo.
