If Mikautadze’s double (15th, 80th), the first two goals of his career in the European Cup for the former Seresian, and the splendid strike from Tolisso (63rd) gave the score the appearance of a lesson, that was more difficult on the ground.
Lucas Perri, the Rhone goalkeeper, was saved by his post and his crossbar in the first half. The Brazilian goalkeeper ended up conceding with a ball which returned to his back following the missed penalty of a certain… Juninho like a wink (88th, 1-4) but that changed nothing during the match.
At that time, Fofana had already left his place for 6 minutes. To preserve it a little bit before the reception in Nice on Sunday. After being a substitute in Reims last weekend, when Pierre Sage had made a turnover, the Belgian who had until then remained on 5 consecutive starts in the league, once again demonstrated his importance in this Lyon team.
With such performances on the continental level, there is no doubt that the eyes of the big European clubs will linger on him a little more.
