Zakaria Aboukhlal Scores Again to Give Toulouse a Win Against Reims

Slick Finish Earns Toulouse All Three Points

Toulouse extended their unbeaten run in Ligue 1 to five games after edging out Reims 1-0 on Sunday afternoon, with Zakaria Aboukhlal's second-half strike proving to be the difference between the two sides.

Aboukhlal Continues Scoring Form

Aboukhlal has now scored in three consecutive league matches for Toulouse, taking his tally for the season to five. The Moroccan forward has been in excellent form since joining the club in the summer, and his goals have played a key role in Toulouse's recent resurgence.

Toulouse Move into Top Half of Ligue 1

The victory moved Toulouse up to ninth in the Ligue 1 standings, just three points behind sixth-placed Nice. Philippe Montanier's side will be hoping to continue their good form when they travel to face Montpellier next weekend.

Reims Drop to 15th

Meanwhile, Reims' defeat sees them drop to 15th in the table, just two points above the relegation zone. Oscar Garcia's team has now lost three of their last five league matches and will need to improve their form if they want to avoid getting dragged into a relegation battle.

Conclusion

Toulouse's win over Reims was a hard-fought affair, but they ultimately deserved the three points. Zakaria Aboukhlal's goal was the difference between the two sides, and the Moroccan forward is quickly becoming one of the most dangerous players in Ligue 1. Toulouse will now be looking to continue their good form when they travel to face Montpellier next weekend, while Reims will need to improve their results if they want to avoid getting dragged into a relegation battle.
