Lens announced Thursday that it had fired Yannick Cahuzac after less than two months in charge. The former club captain took over in September when Lens parted with Dino Toppmöller. Lens did not announce a replacement.

The decision followed back-to-back home defeats. Como won 9-1 in the Champions League on Nov. 4, matching the competition’s record margin of victory, and Marseille won 2-1 on Sunday on Keyliane Abdallah’s 82nd-minute goal. Lens has 13 points from 10 Ligue 1 matches and hosts Toulouse on Nov. 21 when league play resumes.
