Lille moved six points clear at the top of Ligue 1 on Friday night following a 2-0 win at Metz.

Yilmaz s compatriot, Mehmet Zeki Celik, secured the victory in the 89th minute.
Lille goalkeeper Mike Maignan provided the platform for the success.
The 25-year-old France international stretched to his right to tip away Aaron Leya Iseka s spot kick in the 17th minute. He also produced a string of saves before Yilmaz s strike.
