However, Lens, although still three points behind the Phocéens, presents a remarkable progress report if we accept the idea that succeeding Franck Haise was a challenge. Will Still achieved this successfully and led a fifth away team, which had no defeats (two wins, three draws). It is therefore above all the one which concedes the fewest goals in the championship, two fewer than Paris. Gianluigi Donnarumma only had to pick up the ball twice in his cages, against Montpellier and at La Canebière.
