More than three years after a resounding success at Saint-Etienne (0-5), OL once again recorded a very large away victory this Sunday at Le Havre (0-4).
It’s a performance and a result that OL followers and supporters have been waiting for for a very long time. Fifteen days after a controlled success against Nantes (2-0), Pierre’s men Sage did it again this Sunday, and even did even better in Le Havre (0-4). A practically perfect score from A to Z, and which further raises the confidence of this group which has just won for the fifth time in a row in all competitions.
3 years and 10 months almost to the day
A sign that this victory should not be trivialized as it stands, we have to go back more than three years to see Olympique Lyonnais win with a gap at least as wide away from home, as indicated by the Opta specialist. It was during an unforgettable derby against Saint-Etienne won 5-0 on January 24, 2021.
Everything moves very quickly in football, but knowing how to inflict this kind of defeat on opponents going through a bad patch is also the mark of a great team. Alexandre’s teammates Lacazette are not quite there yet, but for several weeks now, clear progress has been observed. It is now up to them to continue this dynamic with the ultimately not so crazy ambition of seeing the Champions League at the end of the season if that is the case.
