Alain Traore and Jeremie Aliadiere score late goals as Lorient come from behind to shock defending champions Montpellier HSC at Stade du Moustoir.

Lorient scored two last-gasp goals to beat defending Ligue 1 champions Montpellier HSC at the Stade du Moustoir.

Against the run of play, Emanuel Herrera opened the scoring for the visitors eight minutes before half time.

The 25-year-old Argentinean forward collected John Utaka's pass before unleashing a superb low shot from 18 yards that nestled in the bottom right corner.

Montpellier took control of the match following the goal and Lorient rarely looked like threatening an equaliser.

However, in the final minute of regulation time, Alain Traore levelled the scores with a left-footed thunderbolt from 25 yards.

Then, with the referee poised to blow for full time, Mathias Autret swung in a hopeful cross and Jeremie Aliadiere fired home an unlikely winner.
