Having won their Coupe de France match with difficulty, OL ended their calendar year on a good note. Out of 45 matches played, the Lyonnais won 28, or 62% success.
After the regrets of the Parc des Princes, theOL wanted to end their year 2024 on a good note. In Valenciennes, the Lyonnais won but we cannot say that the manner was there. No matter, they have ensured the essentials with this qualification for the round of 16 of the Coupe de France. A mission accomplished to go on vacation with a little lighter mind. Despite this failed performance against Feignies AulnoyeOL will be able to turn the page on this year 2024 which will have been much more beautiful than the end of the previous year would suggest. After holding up with flying colors, Pierre's players Sage even managed to secure a qualification for the Europa League at the last minute of the last day of last season. A waking dream for OL supporters who did not expect such a successful first six months in 2024.
A hell of a rhythm
The beautiful epic almost ended with the summer and a transfer window which disrupted the beautiful dynamic. After a failed start, OL nevertheless made up for it and finished this year 2024 with their objectives still very present. A top 4 in the Europa League two days before the end of the league phase, a top 5 in Ligue 1 and qualification for the round of 16 of the Coupe de France. Everything is not perfect of course, but who could have counted on such a scenario a year ago. In fact, OL played 45 matches in 2024 and the results are more than positive. Twenty-eight victories, or 62% success in twelve months and “only” ten setbacks. To achieve the objectives of this 2024-2025 season, Alexandre's teammates Lacazette will have to continue at the same pace.
- 28 wins (62%)
- 7 draws (15.6%)
- 10 defeats (22%)
