Lille OSC were stunned by a FC Sochaux-Montbeliard comeback from three goals down to draw 3-3 in Ligue 1.
Lille OSC and FC Sochaux-Montbeliard played out a six goal thriller in Ligue 1, with the home side astonishingly throwing away a three goal lead with only eleven minutes to spare.
LOSC started the match in tremendous style, opening the scoring through former Chelsea striker Salomon Kalou after 26 minutes, and the Ivorian doubled his side’s tally shortly before half time to make Sochaux manager Eric Hely’s team-talk that bit more difficult.
His side did not appear to have listened to his words at the break, conceding again just three minutes into the second period when Marko Basa headed in from close range.
Lille’s lead seemed insurmountable, but they threw it away in the final eleven minutes.
Cedric Kante fired home from a difficult angle before Vincent Nogueira took centre stage, shooting a powerful skimming shot past Steeve Elana in the LOSC goal.
He followed it up with a wonderful free kick as FCSM stole an unlikely Ligue 1 point on the road.
