The 20-year-old Uzbek joined Lens on a four-year contract last season, becoming the first Uzbek to play in Ligue 1. Lens paid just 100 000 euros ($110 000) to sign him from Belarus club Energetik-BGU Minsk. Veteran winger Andre Ayew put Le Havre ahead in the eighth minute, scoring for the second straight game following his goal against Marseille last weekend.
