An injury-time Michy Batshuayi equaliser ensured Toulouse remained without a win since the opening day in a 1-1 draw with Marseille.
In a game which saw three red cards, La Tefece made the breakthrough midway through the second half thanks to some shambolic Marseille defending, when Martin Braithwaite deflected Adrien Regattin's effort beyond Mandanda.
Then, in the final 15 minutes, Marseille were reduced to 10 men when Benjamin Mendy walked for a professional foul and Braithwaite missed a glorious chance to make the game safe before two Toulouse players saw red - Francois Moubandje for two yellow cards and Steeve Yago for a wild swipe at Georges-Kevin Nkoudou.
And, with the final whistle looming, Batshuayi pounced to silence the home crowd, latching on to Barrada's ball before turning and powering an effort beyond Mauro Goicoechea.
