Lens secured a commanding 2-0 victory over Angers on Saturday evening, securing their place in the French Ligue 1 title race. The match was played at the Stade de France in Paris, with both teams looking to secure points that could potentially determine the fate of the league table.

In the first half, Lens dominated the play, forcing several chances on goal. However, it wasn't until the second half that they finally broke through. In the 55th minute, striker Samuel Openda scored his first goal of the season, putting Lens ahead 1-0.

The lead was short-lived, as Angers quickly responded. In the 69th minute, defender Anthony Fofana netted his first goal for the club, equalizing the scores at 1-1.

With the game tied, Lens continued to dominate the possession in the final stages. In the 88th minute, substitute midfielder Thomas Lemar doubled Lens' lead with a well-placed shot from the edge of the box.

The win was crucial for Lens, who now have 44 points after two matches, only one point behind leaders PSG. This victory also gives them a chance to catch up to Bordeaux, who currently hold the third spot in the table.

The performance of Openda and Fofana was particularly noteworthy. Openda's first goal came during a heated exchange with Angers defenders, while Fofana's goal came as a result of a corner kick.

This victory is a significant boost for Lens and sets the tone for the rest of the season. With the pressure on other clubs, Lens will be looking to build on this momentum and continue their climb towards the top of the table.
