Reims have held Lille to a 1-1 draw at home, with the away side equalising inside the final 20 minutes.

Reims started the stronger side and won a corner after seven minutes, from which Bocundji Ca set up Anthony Weber for the opening goal.

Dimitri Payet had two decent chances inside the opening 25 minutes to level matters, but could not find the target on either occasion.

Then it was Floyd Ayite's turn, for the hosts, to be wasteful. Two chances fell his way before the break but he could not test the goalkeeper.

Lille started to dominate after the break but Payet and the substitute Salomon Kalou both missed with second-half efforts.

However, the pair combined in the 72nd minute for a deserved away equaliser, Payet netting for the fifth time this season.
