Nigeria striker Terem Moffi grabbed the winner for Lorient in the 86th minute. Forward Armand Lauriente put Lorient ahead after just six minutes. Turkey striker Burak Yilmaz equalized from the penalty spot in the 24th. Paris Saint-Germain looks for a fifth straight win when it hosts promoted Clermont on Saturday.
