Lens leads at the break in Reims

Will Still returns to his old garden. Arriving this summer in Lens from Reims, where he spent two seasons, the Belgian technician experienced a special match this Friday evening, during this Ligue 1 meeting between Reims and Lens, counting for the 13th day of the championship. And it's off to a good start for the Belgian coach's players. Dominant in this first act, they ended up finding the net in the 23rd minute of play thanks to Adrien Thomasson, who scored his second goal of the season, having been at the club for three seasons already. As a reminder, the French midfielder is under contract with Lens until June 2026.

Lens is more realistic in front of goal

This first act showed the effectiveness of the Lensois in the opposing camp. With three shots on target, Will Still's players managed to hit the mark. However, on the Reims side, only one shot was on target in the first period. But for the moment, at the break, Reims, although at home, cannot find the solution against Lens. As a reminder, in the event of success for Reims, the locals would move ahead of their evening opponent in the standings, while the Lensois, if they manage to win, would distance Reims by two points and take provisional 6th place in Ligue 1. At the break, Lens leads (0-1) on the Reims pitch.
