Toulouse 2 - 3 Lorient: Walid Mesloub scores as Lorient end winless run against Toulouse

Lorient ended a run of three winless games after Walid Mesloub's first goal of the season secured a 3-2 victory at Toulouse.

Toulouse took the lead just before the break when Jean-Daniel Akpa-Akpro headed Oscar Trejo's corner into Jean-Armel Kana-Biyik's path and the Cameroon international netted at the back post.

Lorient turned the game on its head, though, in two short second-half minutes when Benjamin Jeannot turned Maxime Barthelme's delivery beyond Alban Lafont before the same player struck again, just a minute later, with the help of an Issa Diop deflection and the post.

The scoring did not end there and Toulouse levelled when some great work from Zinedine Machach set up Wissam Ben Yedder but Lorient rounded off an entertaining evening when Mesloub claimed all three points for his side.
