Outstanding performance
Toulouse•MidfielderLorient looked in total control at the break, ripping Toulouse apart on the counter through Ibrahima Baldé before Noah Mbamba doubled the lead just two minutes later, capping a devastating five-minute spell either side of half-time. But Toulouse's dominance in possession and territory - 59% of the ball and 64 dangerous attacks to Lorient's 37 - eventually told, as Casper Tengstedt pulled one back within two minutes of coming on and Thomas Jørgensen leveled just after the hour. Toulouse's discipline was a concern throughout, committing 18 fouls to Lorient's 8, yet they still found a way back into a game they had barely threatened in the first half. For Lorient, the result stings given how comfortably they were cruising at 2-0, while Toulouse's resilience will be the bigger takeaway as they continue to push near the top of the table.
