Alexandre Lacazette at the double to end Lyon's slump in form
Alexandre Lacazette scored twice as 10-man Lyon bounced back from successive Ligue 1 defeats to win 2-1 at high-flying Toulouse.The France international striker converted a 15th-minute penalty into the bottom left corner to put the visitors ahead following Issa Diop's foul on Rachid Ghezzal.Fourth-placed Toulouse were not behind for long though as defender Christopher Jullien headed the equaliser from Oscar Trejo's delivery 11 minutes later.Lacazette fired in to restore the lead seven minutes into the second half and Bruno Genesio's side hung on for victory despite playing the final 34 minutes a man down following the dismissal of former Manchester United defender Rafael for two bookable offences.
