Ivan Santini marked his Ligue 1 debut with two goals as Caen staged an impressive comeback to win 3-2 at home to Lorient.

The visitors stunned the Stade Michel-d'Ornano by storming into a two-goal lead with just 19 minutes on the clock thanks to a brace by Benjamin Moukandjo, the second of which came from the penalty spot.

However, Zargo Toure's 26th-minute red card for hauling down Santini changed the complexion of the match and by half-time Caen were level as Ronny Rodelin and Santini found the back of the net.

Santini settled the game with three minutes remaining when he turned the ball home from close range following a cross from substitute Vincent Bessat.
