Le Mans FC earned a historic point against Brest in a thrilling match, with two goals scored by both teams. Romain Del Castillo opened the score for Brest at the 30th minute, but Le Mans equalized just before the break thanks to Dame Gueye. Their rise in power was confirmed at the return of the vestiaires : launched in depth during a rapid transition, Mafouta took his defender's speed and crossed perfectly his shot to give the advantage to the promoted (2-1, 55e). Brest responded seven minutes later on corner. After a first head of Lucas Tousart repelled by the goalkeeper, Doumbia followed and pushed the ball into the empty goal (2-2, 62e).

For its great return among the elite, Le Mans thus earns a first point at the end of a particularly disputed match.
