Bastia were comfortably beaten by FC Lorient in their Ligue 1 encounter.
FC Lorient destroyed Bastia in their Ligue 1 fixture and retain a narrow chance of qualifying for European competition next season.
The turning point of the match was moments before the break.
Yann Jouffre put Lorient into the lead in first half injury time, finishing well into the far corner from the left hand side of the box.
With that, Bastia’s entire second half outlook had to change, and their more attacking outlook meant they were vulnerable on the counter.
Lorient were able to pick them off, with a goal from Benjamin Corgnet and a brace from former Arsenal star Jeremie Aliadiere, and though Bastia pulled one back through Anthony Modeste, they were comprehensively outplayed.
