As part of the 18th day of Ligue 1 McDonald's, LOSC hosted OGC Nice in this meeting. This meeting, despite the importance of the stakes, only brought together just under 40,000 spectators.
The month of January is not the month that brings crowds together, this can be explained by the cold which permeates the territory, and even the importance of the issues is not enough to warm hearts. Opposed to OGC Nice, LOSC was in agony throughout the first act, conceding a multitude of opportunities including Sofiane Diop's opener (29'). The face displayed was quite different upon returning from the locker room with the early equalizer from Hakon Haraldsson then the achievement of Bafodé Diakité (63′), an achievement synonymous with success (2-1). In total, 38,325 spectators were able to raise their arms in the aisles of the Decathlon Arena – Stade Pierre Mauroy this Friday.
This meeting, the second of the year at home, brought together many Lille supporters, including one from South Korea, which allowed LOSC to record the third crowd of the eighteenth day of Ligue 1 McDonald's. Only the Orange Vélodrome, which hosted RC Strasbourg (61,000), and the Groupama Stadium, where Olympique Lyonnais was neutralized by Toulouse FC (42,750) gathered more spectators this weekend in France .
