VIDEO | Ligue 1 Highlights: Lorient vs Brest
In a crucial game for relegation and the top places in Ligue 1, Brest secured a 1-0 win that gives them second place in French soccer, while Lorient dropped important points in their fight to avoid relegation.
For almost 90 minutes, both teams couldn't break the deadlock, with Brest lacking clarity in front of goal facing a monumental Mvogo who constantly prevented conceding. It wasn't until the 86th minute that Romain Del Castillo scored the winning goal for the visiting team, in a brilliant and fortuitous play that dashed Lorient's hopes of earning points against one of the leaders.
With this result, Brest sits in the second position of Ligue 1, while Lorient slides down the table and remains dangerously close to the relegation zone in 15th place.
