Zapping Foot National Interview – The underside of amateur football, with Romain Molina
Pierre Sage had made it known that he was not worried about his training, she gave him back all his confidence. This Sunday at the start of the afternoon, Olympique Lyonnais actually hosted FC Nantes as part of the seventh day of Ligue 1. A meeting which saw the Rhone club win by a score of two goals to zero and gradually climb to seventh place.
OL in control, Nantes did not carry enough weight
Olympique Lyonnais will immediately put their foot on the ball and start to put pressure on their opponent of the day. The first big chance of the game will, however, be credited to FC Nantes. Ainsley Maitland-Niles loses the ball on his side on the edge of his area. Moses Simon recovers the latter, infiltrates the penalty area, eliminates Duje Caleta-Car easily before striking forcefully with the left. Lucas Perri wins his duel. The Rhone club will continue to attack and take control of the game from the 22nd minute of play. Following a corner, Saïd Benrahma sends a cross from the right to the near post for Nicolas Tagliafico, who cuts the trajectory and deceives Alban Lafont on his bad foot. The Canaries will wake up, without however managing to find the net. Just before half-time, Malick Fofana is launched on the left and hits from a tight angle. His attempt hits the outside post.
Upon returning from the locker room, Corentin Tolisso will be served by a very nice technical gesture from Rayan Cherki before sending a missile. This is rejected by Alban Lafont. FC Nantes will immediately react and lay siege to the opponent’s last meters, without however being decisive. In the 54th minute of play, Les Gones will take the break. Corentin Tolisso crosses hard in front of the goal from the right side of the area. Nicolas Pallois is fighting with Duje Caleta-Car and deflects the ball into his own half. Pierre Sage’s men continue to roll but will scare themselves in the 70th minute of play. On a quick counter-attack, Mathis Abline strikes with his right foot from a tight angle but loses his duel with Lucas Perri. A few seconds later, it was Ernest Nuamah’s turn to find the post. If Saïd Benrahma will offer us an exceptional foul shot to find the head of Alexandre Lacazette, who did not want to try his luck but rather put it back, Moussa Niakhaté will come very close to scoring a goal against his camp on the counterattack. The score will ultimately no longer move.
To summarize
