OL are 9th and not much further ahead

Clinton Mata (OL) against Hoffenheim @UEFA

OL have moved up a place in the Europa League standings. Now 9th after 4 days, he missed an opportunity to enter the top 6.

A taste of unfinished business has invaded Olympique Lyonnais since the final whistle of their match at Hoffenheim on Thursday (2-2). This German equalizer in the 95th minute, while Alexandre Lacazette believed to offer just before an almost unexpected success, leaves a bitter feeling. But it must be said that in this meeting of the 4th day of the Europa League, Pierre's men Sage didn't do everything well to win.

After the undeserved defeat at home against Besiktas (0-1), OL missed the mark again, and they could bite their fingers if they do not reach the top 8 of the classification phase at the from the eight planned posters. With seven points to its credit, the Rhone club is not off to a bad start, and the ambition of reaching the round of 16 directly is still largely achievable. But we're going to have to move a little faster than that to get the 16 or 17 units that should be needed for that.

Currently, here he is 9th, tied with four other teams behind him. If we look ahead, we see that Lazio are perfect so far (four wins), that five teams have ten points, including Ajax, Frankfurt and Anderlecht, and that Tottenham and Steaua Bucharest have nine. Corentin's teammates Tolisso will therefore have to work hard if they wish to avoid additional confrontations in the heart of winter. This will require a good result at Qarabag, their next opponent on November 28.
