Second-placed Reims hit back from two goals down to draw 2-2 at Toulouse and maintain their strong start to the new season.

Olivier Guegan's side looked to be heading for defeat after first-half strikes from Jean-Armel Kana-Biyik and Marthin Braithwaite for the home side.

But the visitors reduced the deficit through Theoson Siebatcheu in the 56th minute before Frederic Bulot netted their equaliser 10 minutes from time.

St Etienne claimed their third-straight league win with a 2-1 success at Montpellier, who are still searching for their first victory of the new campaign.
