Lens dismisses coach Yannick Cahuzac after a record Champions League defeat, with Como beating Lens 9–1 at home. The coaching change follows Cahuzac’s short tenure and leaves Lens to reorganise after a heavy elimination in Europe.
Across reports, outlets agree on the timing and the margin of the loss. Soccer News and Channel NewsAsia frame the decision around the humiliation itself and its place in Lens’ Champions League history. Free Malaysia Today emphasises that Cahuzac was appointed less than two months ago and that Lens’ French Cup winners status sits alongside the setback. Vanguard adds that the sack happens less than a week after the match and cites an AFP source while referencing a report from L’Equipe.
Overall, coverage is consistent: all accounts describe Lens ending Cahuzac’s job following the 9–1 defeat, with differences mainly in how much context about his appointment and the information sources are included.
