Dominators and conquerors from the start of the match, Franck Haise's men had already folded the debates at half-time.

The opening scoring was signed by the player loaned by PSG Arnaud Kalimuendo, author of his fourth goal of the season on a perfect service from Jonathan Clauss (1-0, 14th).

A quarter of an hour later, it is the same Clauss who serves Wesley Saïd for the break (2-0, 29th) before entering his name on the scoreboard himself, taking a head shot from Saïd countered by Gallon (3-0, 36th).

Even before the break, the Lensois had already almost won.

They will still add a fourth goal to their offensive evening festival, by Przemysław Frankowski (4-0, 60th).

It is already the fourth goal of the season for the very good Polish summer rookie, also author of three assists.

Attractive offensively, the Lensois simply stifled their evening opponent: 59% possession, 22 shots, 12 on target.

A one-sided game.

With this large victory, the Lensois can approach their weekend in peace, having recovered second place in the standings at Olympique de Marseille.

With 24 points, the Sang et Or are temporarily back in front of the Phocéens but also OGC Nice, pending their matches on Sunday, respectively against Metz (1 p.m.) and Montpellier (5 p.m.).
