RC Lens has knocked national champion Lille out of the French cup after a blistering derby. However, in the 1/16th finals, the Belgian Amadou Onana had done everything to give Lille a ticket for the next round.
The tall midfielder beats goalkeeper Farinez after half an hour with a cross-sectional header. Less than 5 minutes into the game, the Young Devil struck again and punished weak defending.
Lille was halfway on roses, but in the end it gave up its lead. Seko Fofana, also good for the connecting goal, curled in the equalizer through the post in the 95th minute.
In the penalty kicks, Fofana put the icing on the cake with the deciding penalty. Earlier, José Fonte had completely missed the target. In the next round, Lens will take on AS Monaco, the new club of coach Philippe Clement.
