For the 15th day of Ligue 1, Auxerre and Lens offered a lively and balanced show, ending with a score of 2-2. If the Lensois led twice, the Auxerrois, supported by their public at the Abbé-Deschamps stadium, were able to find the resources to come back each time, making the sharing of points logical.
Lens, 6th in the standings, quickly took the lead in this meeting thanks to great collective action. In the 22nd minute, Labeau-Lascary sent a precise cross into the area for El Aynaoui, whose rebound, deflected by a defender, deceived goalkeeper Léon to open the scoring (0-1). This goal not only allowed the Sang et Or to take the advantage, but it also marked a turning point for El Aynaoui, a player in the process of rebuilding.
After a start to the season marked by a knee injury which kept him away from the field for several months and an aborted transfer to AS Monaco, the Lens midfielder seems to be gradually regaining his feelings. His official return at the beginning of October, he has continued since the minutes of play. This goal against Auxerre, the first of his season, is the perfect illustration. In eight appearances, El Aynaoui shows that he is regaining a taste for football and regaining his effectiveness.
