VIDEO | Ligue 1 Highlights: Lille vs Le Havre
The third-best home team in Ligue 1, Lille, seeks to continue their good form at home with a victory over Le Havre, dedicated to embracing their role as giant killers they have achieved throughout the campaign and aiming towards the top half of the table.
Lille, like a locomotive, was determined to secure a home victory, charging forward led by their Canadian striker, Jonathan David, who entered this match with 8 goals in the current season, ranking fourth in the top scorer list.
However, he would exit this match as the second top scorer in Ligue 1 after netting a hat trick, bringing his tally to eleven goals for the season, tying Lacazette and Ben Yedder as chasers in the scoring chart. This also secured a 3-0 victory for Lille at home, solidifying their position for a Champions League spot.
With this result, Lille climbs to third place in the table, just one point behind second place (Nice), who fell yesterday against Olympique de Lyon. This comes pending the conclusion of matchday 22 of Ligue 1. Meanwhile, Le Havre remains in twelfth position in the table, distancing themselves from the strong start they had to the season.
