Strasbourg hosted RC Lens in a crucial Ligue 1 Matchday 24 encounter that ended in a 1-1 draw. Lens took the lead through Joaquin Panichelli, who capitalized on a defensive error before chipping goalkeeper Robin Risser. However, Mamadou Sangaré equalized for Strasbourg with a stunning half-volley from outside the box after Lens had dominated possession.
The Artois side missed the chance to provisionally go top of the standings despite their strong performance. The match featured controversial penalty decisions and missed opportunities, particularly from Lens attackers Odsonne Edouard and Wesley Saïd. Neither side deserved to come away as winners in a tepid contest between two of Ligue 1's best sides this season.
