PARIS: Mateus Tete scored twice as Olympique Lyonnais rallied in the second half to defeat Troyes 4-1 and win their second game of the new Ligue 1 campaign.
Alexandre Lacazette had given Lyon an early lead but Gast Troyes equalized at half-time after Florian Tardieu equalized from the penalty spot in the 39th minute.
However, just after half-time, new Lyon signing Nicolas Tagliafico redeemed the penalty by putting the home side back in front.
Tete then struck in the 49th minute for a 3-1 lead and rammed home the fourth in the 76th minute to take his season tally to three.
It could have been five at the last minute but teenage substitute Rayan Cherki crashed into the woodwork with his attempt.
Troyes have lost all three Ligue 1 games this season and slipped to the bottom of the French league table.
