In this paper a new div-curl result is established in an open set $\Omega$ of$\mathbb{R}^N$, $N\geq 2$, for the product of two sequences of vector-valuedfunctions which are bounded respectively in $L^p(\Omega)^N$ and$L^q(\Omega)^N$, with ${1/p}+{1/q}=1+{1/(N-1)}$, and whose respectivelydivergence and curl are compact in suitable spaces. We also assume that theproduct converges weakly in $W^{-1,1}(\Omega)$. The key ingredient of the proofis a compactness result for bounded sequences in $W^{1,q}(\Omega)$, based onthe imbedding of $W^{1,q}(S\_{N-1})$ into $L^{p'}(S\_{N-1})$ ($S\_{N-1}$ theunit sphere of $\mathbb{R}^N$) through a suitable selection of annuli on whichthe gradients are not too high, in the spirit of De Giorgi and Manfredi. Thediv-curl result is applied to the homogenization of equi-coercive systems whosecoefficients are equi-bounded in $L^\rho(\Omega)$ for some$\rho\textgreater{}{N-1\over 2}$ if $N\textgreater{}2$, or in $L^1(\Omega)$ if$N=2$. It also allows us to prove a weak continuity result for the Jacobian forbounded sequences in $W^{1,N-1}(\Omega)$ satisfying an alternative assumptionto the $L^\infty$-strong estimate of Brezis and Nguyen. Two examples show thesharpness of the results.
