Lille through to League Cup quarters

PARIS — Nolan Roux scored deep into extra-time to give Lille a 1-0 home win against Toulouse and a place in the quarterfinals of the French League Cup on Tuesday.

Striker Roux unleashed a low cross-shot in the 117th minute as Lille joined St Etienne, Troyes and Stade Rennes into the last eight of the competition.

Lille dominated throughout, but were kept in check by a stern Toulouse defence, who looked more vulnerable after Steeve Yago was sent off after picking up a second yellow card in the 86th minute.
