In the first round of Ligue 1, Lens and Ajaccio faced off in a thrilling encounter at the Stade de France. Lens, who were on a roll with their performances in recent games, took advantage of their momentum to open up a comfortable lead early on.

In the 8th minute, Lens striker Fofana scored his second goal of the season, capitalizing on an error from Ajaccio's goalkeeper. The ball was deflected into the back of the net by Fofana, who then calmly finished it past the goalkeeper for Lens' fourth goal of the game.

Ajaccio responded well to Fofana's goal, scoring two more goals within three minutes of the restart. In the 17th minute, Ajaccio scored their third goal, this time from a corner kick from the right side of the field.

The teams continued to play well, with both teams looking to take full advantage of their strengths. However, in the 65th minute, Lens struck again, this time through a penalty kick. The penalty was taken by Fofana, who headed it over the crossbar and into the back of the net, giving Lens a 4-0 lead.

Fofana continued to be a force in the midfield as he found space to score multiple times throughout the match. He scored twice in the first half alone, including a header that flew over the goalkeeper and another one that found its way into the top corner of the net.

Lens had a strong performance throughout the match, but they couldn't quite find the back of the net against Ajaccio. Fofana's goal gave Lens the lead, but the team still needed to improve their defensive work if they wanted to secure a win.

Overall, the match was a great display of skill and teamwork between Lens and Ajaccio. Both teams showed that they can compete against each other, and the result will certainly have been different without Fofana's goal. However, the performance of the players and the team spirit will surely be remembered long after the game is over.
