Cedric Mongongu's 63rd-minute penalty looked to have done enough to give Pascal Dupraz's men victory, only for Mendes to strike in the dying moments to snatch a point for the visitors.

Evian remain 17th in the Ligue 1 standings, while Lille miss the chance to move within six points of second-placed Monaco.
