Lille have broken their own record by scoring their 20th goal of the season on Saturday night against Stade Rennais. Jonathan David was responsible for the final score, which saw Lille win 1-0 and set a new club record.
David's goal was a stunning strike from distance that left Stade Rennais goalkeeper Hugo Gatti no chance. The forward had already scored five goals in his last four games, but this was his first hat-trick of the season.
It was also a historic moment for David, who became only the second player in Lille's history to reach the milestone of 20 league goals. He joins fellow striker Emmanuel Rivière, who scored 22 goals in his debut season at the club back in 2017.
The victory means that Lille remain top of the Ligue 1 table, two points ahead of Paris Saint-Germain. It is a testament to David's form that he has been able to contribute so much to Lille's success this season.
The French striker has been a revelation since joining Lille from PSV Eindhoven in January. He has scored 18 goals in all competitions this season, including six in just six matches in all competitions.
His impressive form has not gone unnoticed, and he has been named Ligue 1 Player of the Month twice this season. He has also been called up to the France national team, and it will be interesting to see how he performs for his country in the future.
Overall, Lille's 20th goal of the season is a fantastic achievement for Jonathan David and the rest of the team. They now look set to continue their push for the title, and fans can't wait to see what else they can achieve in the remaining weeks of the season.
