PARIS (AP) — Zakaria Aboukhlal’s late goal gave Toulouse a 1-0 win against Reims in the French league on Sunday, extending the southern team’s unbeaten streak to three matches.
Reims had the chance to move into the top five but Aboukhlal’s goal instead sealed a third straight loss for the Champagne side.
Aboukhlal scored in the 84th minute with a subtle poked ball over the Reims goalkeeper.
Toulouse moved up to 12th in the standings with 12 points from 10 matches, two points behind Reims.
Paris Saint-Germain beat Lens 1-0 Saturday to move six points clear at the top.
Aboukhlal was again decisive after scoring a brace last week against Montpellier. He has scored four goals in his last four league matches.
