**Brest Beats Toulouse 1-0 in Ligue 1**
In the opening match of the French league season, Brest secured their first win of the campaign with a convincing 1-0 victory over Toulouse on Saturday afternoon.
The home side took the lead early in the game when midfielder Lucas Gaudin delivered a precise cross from the left channel, which was expertly controlled and finished by striker Yannick Fournier to open the scoring for Brest.
Toulouse, despite playing with greater control throughout the match, failed to find an equalizer. Their best chance came in the 78th minute when defender Mathieu Deschamps headed narrowly wide of the target from close range.
The win for Brest is significant as they move up to seventh place in the table, while Toulouse remain in ninth place after a disappointing performance. The result also gives Brest momentum going into their next fixture against Nice at home on Tuesday.
With the season now underway, both teams will be eager to continue their strong performances and build upon this impressive start.
