Delort’s double fires Montpellier to victory against Caen

Andy Delort scored twice as Montpellier secured an emphatic 5-0 victory against Caen in Sunday’s French Cup tie.

The 28-year-old striker delivered a spectacular display in his 23rd appearance this season, helping the Paillade triumph over the Vikings.

Michel Der Zakarian’s men raced into the lead through efforts from Teji Savanier and Gaetan Laborde before the Algeria international made it three in the 40th minute for his ninth goal this campaign.

Moments before the half-time break, the Vikings were reduced to 10 men after Jessy Pi received his second yellow card and was subsequently sent off.
