00:00Alonso aiming to kick off 2025 with a victory as the transfer rumours swirl around the stands at
00:09Bonnard. One lot to lose, look to begin the new year with a sixth win in eight and a push towards
00:15the European places. Yet the decision, opportunity here to counter for Alonso, it's an excellent ball
00:26through. Surely a nudge in the back by Mbala and Zola. Kipoho. Kings on the left, it's Aberclough
00:37who's been sent through the middle. Aberclough through on goal. Oh it's a brilliant piece of
00:41goalkeeping from Herve Coffey. He was clean through. Get it to safety. Donham for hooks clearance.
00:51Kipoho. There goes the whistle for half time. Nothing to separate Alonso and Toulouse after
01:01the opening 45 minutes at Stade Bonnard. It's nil-nil between Alonso and Toulouse.
01:11It's a thought that may well have been the moment. Protocosta.
01:36Just crazy. Protocosta.
01:41Catching him with the start on the
01:50calf of Itsinipe.
01:53As the referee's interpretation going to be.
01:59The yellow card initially. Is he going to stick with that decision or not?
02:12Looks like he's going to go here. David Protocosta. The yellow cards upgraded to red.
02:22Bewildered look on the face of the Lance substitutes.
02:28Sent off for that challenge on Djibril Itsinipe.
02:31Abouklaou. He goes down and free. Seeing nothing untowards.
02:39Fulcini. Mackenzie back there to cover. Almost overran it though.
02:45It's going to be looked over by the referee.
02:52Toulouse going to be awarded the penalty here.
02:55It's the challenge from Sarr.
03:01Did he make enough contact with Abouklaou in the eyes of the referee to send him sprawling?
03:09It is going to be a penalty for the visitors.
03:23It's going to be a penalty for the visitors.
03:25It is going to be a penalty for the visitors.
03:39Fouled by Malang Sarr.
03:45Lunges towards, up steps Abouklaou. And he sends it in.
03:51Lunges towards, up steps Abouklaou. And he sends Koffi the wrong way to give Toulouse the lead here.
04:03His sixth goal of the season. And Toulouse have the 1-0 advantage.
04:09With just under 20 minutes to play it stands at Bonnard.
04:12Penalised for the challenge and Abouklaou held his nerve.
04:36He hits 10 last season Abouklaou.
04:39He hits 10 last season Abouklaou.
04:42The season before that.
04:44The season before that.
04:56The member of the Lawrence coaching staff too.
05:00Who is he calling over?
05:04It's Will Still
05:39A couple of stoppages as well for players to receive treatments.
05:53So even though the 90 minutes is almost up, still presumably a fair amount of time to be added on for again.
06:04Back over to the sideline.
06:09André and Tomasson getting involved.
06:22It's going to be a red card.
06:25Entirely short.
06:27It was four.
06:40One field from Coffey and it's been missed.
06:44This is a chance to wait on here.
06:47Rest out to the edge of his area.
06:50That's a thwart.
06:56It's all over.
07:04Last act of the game.
07:05Guillaume Rest rushing out.
07:08That's a deny.
07:10Kembo Dillawiddy.
07:12And the final score is 1-0.
07:16Toulouse won.
07:18Zachariah Abouklaou with the only goal coming from the penalty spot in the 73rd minute.
07:24After David Perreira da Costa was sent off for a challenge on Gibraltar City.
07:30It was initially shown a yellow card, but that was upgraded to red.
07:39Just a fourth defeat of the season for Lens.
07:44The first time they've been beaten by a team beneath them in the standings.
07:50It will be interesting to hear the thoughts of Will Stilt on those two key moments in the second half.
07:58Two key moments in the second half.
