how it happened
After a first half in which Caen player Djulys Gomis found the back of the net (0-1, 19'), the Titis came back with a completely different attitude in the second half to win the three points in a top of the table group A clash.
The Rouge et Bleu quickly levelled things up through Noah Lemina after he was played through by Ilyes Housni (1-1, 52'). A few minutes later, Housni turned goalscorer as he dispatched a penalty (2-1, 55'). Romaric Etonde then got his side's third thanks to a Noah Lemina assist (3-1, 73') to reward the Parisians' constant second half pressure.
Against all odds, the away side pulled a goal back thanks to Lyvans Yeponde (3-2, 81'). The Titis didn't buckle though and scored another through Romaric Etonde, as Kamil Bensoula assisted him (4-2, 90').
Thanks to their 15th win of the season, the Titis remain top of the league, with a five point lead over Paris FC and take a big step towards qualification for the final phase.
