Ligue 1 Review: Lacazette leads Lyon, Marseille held

A brace from Alexandre Lacazette helped Lyon to a 5-1 thrashing of Guingamp in Ligue 1 on Sunday.

Lacazette scored once in each half for Bruno Genesio's men, who are third in the table after winning five of their past six league games.

Lacazette restored the hosts' lead soon after, bursting into the area before getting past goalkeeper Jonas Lossl and tapping in.

Wissam Ben Yedder had given Toulouse a second-half lead, but Somalia's own goal saw the teams share the spoils.

Giovanni Sio's red card in the second half was the only down point for Rennes, but they managed to hold firm for over 20 minutes despite their numerical disadvantage.
