Lille were held to a 1-1 draw in Ligue 1 away at second-placed Brest on Sunday after Martin Satriano cancelled out Jonathan David's opener for the visitors.

Brest were looking to keep a sixth straight clean sheet at home but after a goalless first half Lille broke the deadlock in the 67th minute when Angel Gomes found David, who scored his 15th league goal of the season.

Brest equalised in the 79th minute when Lille's Leny Yoro attempted to block Kenny Lala in the box and fell over, allowing Martin Satriano to pounce on the ball and fire his shot into the top corner.

Although Brest failed to keep a clean sheet, they had goalkeeper Marco Bizot to thank for sparing them a defeat after the goalkeeper made seven saves.

Brest are nine points behind leaders Paris Saint-Germain, who play their game in hand later on Sunday. Lille are fourth with 43 points as they seek a Champions League spot, four points behind Brest.
