Youth League: The Lensois U19s show the way

The young guns of RC Lens won against their counterparts from Arsenal this Wednesday in London.

Already victorious in the first leg (1-0), the Sang et Or under 19s dominated the English with a score of 0-2, with goals from Rayan Fofana (69e) and Oscar Lenne (90e).

Thanks to this success, Lens secures leadership in its group, with four points ahead of Sevilla FC, who at the same time got the better of PSV Eindhoven (1-0).

The Artesian U19s are therefore directly qualified for the round of 16 of the Youth League; unlike the young Parisians who will absolutely have to beat Dortmund in Germany in two weeks to reach the play-offs (16e final) of the competition.
