RC Lens concluded a frustrating four-match winless streak by securing a 2-1 victory over Olympique Lyonnais on Friday night. The match marked the first Ligue 1 fixture since the league paused for a three-week international break.
Matthieu Udol was a key figure for the home side, netting Lens’ second goal. The win at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis provided a much-needed boost for the northern French club as they look to rebuild momentum.
In other Ligue 1 news, Paris Saint-Germain head coach Luis Enrique dismissed worries regarding Ousmane Dembélé’s recent form. The forward was rested ahead of Saturday’s clash against promoted side Le Mans.
Resting Dembélé seems risky if he needs sharpness. Let’s see how PSG handles Le Mans without their star.
Glad Lens finally broke that streak. Udol’s goal was pure class. Great atmosphere at Bollaert!
