Olympique Lyonnais stalls in Champagne! Yesterday evening, for the 12th day of Ligue 1, Les Gones took to the pitch at the Stade de Reims with the firm intention of winning after their victory in the derby just before the break. Quickly in front with the opening score of the inevitable Rayan Cherki (38th, 1-0), Pierre Sage's men finally conceded the equalizer in the heart of the second act on a goal from Oumar Diakaté (55th, 1- 1).
“Are they going to stay this winter? I think so”
A draw which could have turned into a defeat without big saves from Lucas Perri at the end of the match. After the meeting, Pierre Sage was questioned about the performance of his team, but also about the topic of the moment in the Rhône: the transfer window and the possible departures of stars like Malick Fofana and Rayan Cherki. With his usual mischief, he preferred to ask: “Are they going to stay this winter? I think so. If I'm sure? I'm sure I think so (laughs)”. Everyone will have their own interpretation.
