Troyes remain at the foot of the table in Ligue 1 after suffering a 2-0 defeat to Toulouse at home.

The hosts managed to hold out Alain Casanova's side for the first 45 minutes but the gaps opened in the second half.

Wissam Ben Yedder broke the deadlock at the Stade de l'Aube in the 65th minute, with a right-footed shot from the right side of the box after being released by Etienne Capoue.

Troyes almost restored parity on 73 minutes when Marcos turned Julien Faussurier's cross towards the visitors' goal, but his attempt was kept out by Ali Ahamada.

Moments later Toulouse scored their second goal, as Emmanuel Riviere found the target from close range to wrap up the points for his side.
