Standout star drives Lens past Angers

Florian Thauvin opened the scoring in the 13th minute with a low finish, setting Lens on their way to a 5-1 win over Angers.

He latched onto Saud Abdulhamid's headed lay-off and guided his shot inside the far corner (13.).

He then turned provider, slipping a pass for Odsonne Edouard to convert from close range (25.). After the restart, he threaded a through ball for the same teammate to finish again (48.).

He finished with one goal, two assists and seven key passes. He also delivered two accurate crosses and 15 successful final third passes before making way (69.), a complete creative display that kept Angers pinned back.

Lens rise from second to first in Ligue 1 and visit Lille next. Angers host Lyon next.
