Téfécé was very hot against Angers. Despite Dejaegere’s early opener, the Scoists did not give up and quickly equalized thanks to a free kick from Bentaleb on the half hour mark. The Algerian could have scored twice, but his shot hit Maxime Dupé’s bar before half-time. Violets playmaker Branco van den Boomen then put his side on the right track by scoring his first goal of the season in Ligue 1, from the penalty spot. In the second half, despite the efforts of the SCO, the Toulouse defense held and Spierings definitively offered victory to Philippe Montanier’s team thanks to a super but from outside the area. Amine Salama reduced the score in stoppage time, in vain. Toulouse are back in the top 10 while Angers remain stuck in a seventeenth place, synonymous with relegation to Ligue 2 but are making progress in the game. Anger will host Rennes on the next day of the championship while Toulouse will face in Strasbourg.
