Evian Thonon Gaillard conceded a late equaliser to draw 1-1 with Lorient at home in Ligue 1 on Saturday.

The hosts made the breakthrough after just eight minutes, when assisted by Yannick Sagbo, Saber Khelifa shot home with his right foot from the centre of the box.

Lorient could have equalised minutes later, had Stephan Andersen not kept out Kevin Monnet-Paquet's right-footed shot from close range.

Lorient eventually restored parity, but they kept it until the 86th minute to do so.

Jeremie Aliadiere was the creator of the goal, as he teed up Gilles Sunu for a right-footed shot from the centre of the Evian penalty area.
