In the latest edition of football's top flight, Ligue 1, two teams from France's top tier were in action - Lille and Nantes.

Lille was led by their star striker David Luiz, who scored a stunning goal to seal a 2-1 victory over Nantes.

David had opened the scoring with just three minutes on the clock as he headed home from a long ball down the right flank.

Nantes, however, were not to be outdone as they responded with a goal of their own just moments later.

Bentaleb, also a key player for the team, scored his first goal of the season in the 48th minute.

The goals put the hosts up 2-1 and gave them a huge advantage going into the break.

It was a strong performance from both sides, but it would be the defending Lille that proved to be the more dangerous side throughout the match.

Their defensive play saw them constantly pressuring Nantes, while their attacking prowess allowed them to create plenty of chances.

However, Nantes managed to find themselves unable to convert any of those opportunities and eventually lost the game 2-1.

The result leaves the team with a point after the round has concluded, but they still have a lot to work towards moving forward.

Overall, it was a thrilling encounter between two of the best teams in French football, and the fans will no doubt be looking forward to seeing how this continues to develop.
