PARIS — Veteran midfielder Teji Savanier has scored a goal-of-the-season contender and been sent off as Montpellier won at Toulouse 2-1 in the French league. The result on Friday lifts Montpellier above Toulouse on goal difference in the middle of Ligue 1. Savanier and Toulouse center back Rasmus Nicolaisen were both issued red cards. Lens scored two second-half goals to beat Lorient 2-0. Lorient is second to last with two games remaining and in serious relegation trouble.
