In the 65th minute, Darwin Nunez slipped past a defender and the Toulouse keeper in prefect fashion and was left with an empty net but failed to score after targeting the side post. Then the ball fell to Ryan Gravenberch, who still sent it into the net for 4:1.
In stoppage time, Salah received a pass in the box, played coolly and feinted a defender before shooting. The ball hit the crossbar and into the Toulouse goal for the final 5-1.
