Stéphanie Frappart’s decisions during this Strasbourg – Lens should get people talking. The referee whistled a very generous penalty for Strasbourg’s second equalizer (58th). At the start, a center from the left, Chavez who holds the Santos jersey and the Strasbourg resident who collapses.
This is the fourth set-piece goal conceded by Lens this season, out of four goals conceded in total. Strasbourg had already equalized from a corner in the first period (18th), while Sarr was too short behind Sylla.
Lens, who recorded a fifth consecutive draw, had finally found the net with great efficiency. Mbala Nzola opened the scoring in the 5th with a quick action: launch from Frankowski for Thomasson who crosses deep and Nzola who pokes his ball at Petrovic.
Just before the break, Lens regained the lead thanks to Andy Diouf, intercepting a short throw from Petrovic for Doukouré before slipping the ball under the goalkeeper.
At the end of the match, Nzola was too short on a good cross from Sotoca (79th).
In the meantime, Stéphanie Frappart had not whistled a penalty for Strasbourg (hand in the Medina area (31st) nor a red card for Sylla who had caught Nzola who was going on goal (35th).
Among the other opportunities, Chavez forced Petrovic into a nice tap (55th) and Samba was decisive (49th).
