Despite trailing by two goals, though, Christian Gourcuff's men rallied and soon reduced the deficit to just one on the hour mark through Vincent Aboubakar.
Remi Garde's side looked poised to claim the three points by boasting a one-goal advantage in stoppage time, only for Alain Traore to strike in the dying stages to deny les Gones the victory.
Lorient remain ninth in France's top flight, two points adrift of their opposition today.
