Defeated by Sporting CP this Tuesday (2-0), LOSC did not have the weapons to shine in the Champions League. Journalists from The Evening Team were unanimous at the final whistle, the Dogues were not ready for such a deadline.
Bernard Lions
First to draw, Bernard Lions believes that the Dogues have given their opponent a nice gift: “LOSC gave Sporting the victory because the turning points of the match were none other than two individual errors: the first goal and the expulsion in the wakehe believes. I had the same feeling about this match as in Saint-Étienne. LOSC is not so bad in terms of organisation, possession, and control, an area in which they were on a par with the Portuguese, but there is a lack of conviction and chances. They didn’t create much. I feel like this team is missing a soul. They let themselves be beaten, without really fighting.”the journalist gets annoyed.
Guillaume Dufy
For his part, Guillaume Dufy believes that LOSC simply came up against a stronger team: “Sporting fully deserved their victory. Lille were under pressure for 90 minutes and were unable to find the key to defending against the Swede. They were nervous and naive. Lille played a mid-table Ligue 1 match.”he finally realized.
Etienne Moatti
Finally, Étienne Moatti draws up a sort of assessment, pointing out a certain decline in performance: “There was no intensity in Lille’s game. We had the impression of seeing a French team discovering the European Cup and arriving with its naivety and nervousness… Sporting are probably superior on paper, but frankly, they gave the match away. Everything changed in a few minutes. I have the impression that Lille were not at their best and that the objective of the season was the Champions League. Now, they are on a senator’s pace.”he concluded.
