Zapping Foot National The Little Princes of the Rock, immersion in the AS Monaco Elite Group!
A shock that kept all its promises. This Friday evening, LOSC actually hosted Olympique Lyonnais as part of the tenth day of Ligue 1. A meeting which saw the two teams part with a parity score, one goal each. Les Dogues provisionally climb onto the third step of the podium, while Les Gones are provisionally fifth.
A shock of quality
The two teams will not go through the usual observation round. In the tenth minute of play, Lille will miss a completely lunar action. After a bad back pass from Moussa Niakhaté, Angel Gomes is served by Jonathan David and finds himself absolutely alone at the penalty spot. The England international, however, sent his recovery out of bounds, while Lucas Perri was also no longer in his cages. In the process, Thomas Meunier will hit the Lyon crossbar after some good work from Gabriel Gudmundsson. In the 17th minute of play, LOSC opened the scoring after another error from the visitors. Jonathan David takes advantage of a bad back pass from Ainsley Maitland-Niles to get ahead of OL's Brazilian goalkeeper and put the ball in the back of the net. At the half-hour mark, Angel Gomes hit the post with an excellently placed free kick.
Olympique Lyonnais simply couldn't do it in this first period but will return to the pitch with better intentions. Upon returning from the locker room, Rayan Cherki will start dribbling before offering a goal ball to his captain. Alexandre Lacazette completely misses the target, like the Lille miss in the first half. The Rhone club is getting better and better and continues to push. On the hour mark, Ainsley Maitland-Niles' missile passed a few centimeters from the goal, before Rayan Cherki found the Lille crossbar (72nd). Lucas Chevalier will offer himself a very classy double save in the 75th minute of play, one minute before conceding the equalizer by Ainsley Maitland-Niles. Finally, the Englishman saw his goal refused by the VAR. The Gones will not give up and come back to the level at the start of additional time on a recovery from Malick Fofana. The two teams therefore part with a parity score, one goal everywhere.
To summarize
A shock that kept all its promises. This Friday evening, LOSC actually hosted Olympique Lyonnais as part of the tenth day of Ligue 1. A meeting which saw the two teams part with a parity score, one goal each. Les Dogues provisionally climb onto the third step of the podium, while Les Gones are provisionally fifth.
