Lyon v Toulouse
Memphis Depay scores stunner as Lyon beat Toulouse
Memphis Depay scored a brace, including a strike from by the halfway line, to inspire Lyon to a 4-0 victory over Toulouse.
Depay, a January signing from Manchester United, hit Lyon's third and fourth goals in the Ligue 1 win, with the latter coming after he picked up the ball just inside Toulouse's half before looping a brilliant effort into the air and over the stranded Alban Lafont.
Oh. My. Word.

Christophe Jallet had fired Lyon into the lead in the 36th minute from a tight angle, before Maxwel Cornet made it two with a strike into the top corner just after the break.
Depay got in on the act after 53 minutes after being played in by Jallet, with the Netherlands international then scoring his stunning second eight minutes from the end.
