Lille FC has been in sensational form this season and they showed no signs of slowing down as they beat Strasbourg 3-1 at the Stade de Lorient on Sunday.
The match started off with a bang as Lille took the lead through Jonathan David's header in the 25th minute. The forward was given space in the box by Strasbourg's defense and he slotted home the ball past the goalkeeper to give his team the lead.
Strasbourg fought back bravely and equalized just before half-time through a penalty kick from Florian Thauvin. However, Lille responded quickly and scored again in the second half through another goal from David. This time it was a header from Nicolas Pépé that put Lille back in front.
The final goal came from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who converted a penalty kick after being fouled by Thauvin. The victory for Lille is their fifth straight win and they now sit top of the table ahead of PSG's match against Nice.
The performance of Lille's striker, Jonathan David, stands out in particular. He has been in scintillating form this season and has scored eight goals in just six games. His double against Strasbourg highlights his ability to score crucial goals in important matches.
Overall, this result is a testament to Lille's quality and consistency. They have been performing well all season and this win puts them even further ahead in the title race. It will be interesting to see how they perform against Paris Saint-Germain next week, but for now, they can celebrate their victory over Strasbourg.
