76′
Two new changes on the German side
Hlozek et Tabakovic replaces Bischof et Moerstedt.
75′
Rémy Descamps’ tap dance
What an opportunity for Hoffenheim. On a strong cross from the left, Bulter deflects the ball with his right foot. Not far from being lobbed, Descamps deflects the ball over his bar.
A half-filled PreZero Arena for this fourth day of the Europa League. 1,400 Lyon supporters are present in the park.
73′
OL has completely changed its face
The newcomers have done Pierre Sage's team a lot of good. In attack, Lacazette, Fofana and Cherki keep moving, quite the opposite of their predecessors Benrahma, Mikautadze and Orban.
67′
Changes for Hoffenheim
Little in sight, Kramaric gives up his place to Bulter. Prass is also replaced by Kaderabek.
66′
Abner equalizes for OL
It's no longer the same team on the OL side. Superb action from the entrants with the Cherki-Lacazette duo at the start of the action. Countered, Cherki's shot comes back to Abner who finishes with his left foot. Lyon returned to the game five minutes after the entry of its executives.
64′
Immediate change of pace
The four entrants bring new impetus to Pierre Sage's team which pushes Hoffenheim back. The Lyonnais are pushing.
61′
Quadruple change for Lyon
Mikautadze, Benrahma, Kumbedi and Orban were replaced by Lacazette, Fofana, Cherki and Maitland-Niles!
60′
New corner for OL
The Lyonnais push to equalize. Abner's corner is cleared by the defense.
55′
Caleta-Car sees his cross blocked. Behind, the Croatian receives Benrahma's corner but his header misses Baumann's target.
53′
Hoffenheim proche du break
Lyon is once again taken behind his back. Despite a three-way defense, the Germans managed to break through the axis of the Lyon rearguard. Served in depth, the young Moerstedt crosses his shot a little too much. Serious warning for OL.
47′
Valentin Gendrey opens the scoring for Hoffenheim
The Lyonnais were picked up cold at the start of the second period. The OL defense is completely at a standstill which benefits Bischof who sends a perfect cross to Gendrey who just has to finish. Pierre Sage's players are down 1-0, and that's quite logical.
46′
It's back to Germany
Said Benrahma starts the second period.
21:51
It's the break at the PreZero Arena
At the end of a very short first period, the two teams returned to the locker room with a goalless draw. Very difficult first 45 minutes for the Lyonnais who only struck twice for a shot on target, compared to 10 shots and six on target on the German side. We will have to show a completely different face after the break to hope to bring back a result from Hoffenheim.
43′
The flight of Rémy Descamps
On a beautiful curled shot from Kramaric, the former Lyon goalkeeper relaxes well to get the ball out of his left corner.
39′
New corner for Hoffenheim
Catastrophic corner for the Germans. At the start of the ball, Bischof is re-served by Kramaric. Problem, the Hoffenheim player is offside.
35′
Late, Abner crushes Gendrey's heel. The referee does not whistle but the Frenchman from Hoffenheim remains on the ground.
29′
The Rémy Descamps parade
On the action following the Lyon corner, Maxence Caqueret does not cover his camp at all and lets Kramaric go deep. Fortunately for OL, the ball bounced behind the Croatian's back who did not keep the lead. Behind, Moerstedt's shot was deflected by the foot of Rémy Descamps.
28′
First corner for OL
Abner sticks it with his left foot, the ball is cleared by the German defense.
27′
Faulty for a charge behind Gendrey's back, the Croatian defender remains on the ground. He seems stunned.
25′
New corner for Hoffenheim
Bischof is on the ball but the fourth German corner kick is cleared by Descamps.
23′
Opportunities are rare
Difficult start to the match for OL who were unable to get close to the German goal. The movements are too shallow to hope to take the defense in default.
20′
Hoffenheim held the ball a little more than OL after 20 minutes (55% possession). In terms of strikes, the Germans struck twice for a shot on target, compared to a single strike on the Lyon side, which was off target.
15′
Good ball handling from Descamps
Bischof's long shot is well captured by the Lyon goalkeeper, who reassures himself after his failed exit.
13′
Third corner for the Germans
New cold sweat for the Pierre Sage players who are struggling to escape.
11′
The hazardous exit of Rémy Descamps
The first big cold sweat for the Lyon porter in the evening. On a deep ball, he misses his foot release. Fortunately for OL, Kramaric failed to find the target, blocked by Caleta-Car.
10′
Clinton Mata also warned
The Lyon defender is warned in turn. The Romanian referee has an easy trigger at the start of the game.
9′
The first opportunity for Mikautadze
Launched in depth, Benrahma sends a good cross for Mikautadze. The Georgian's header is captured by Baumann.
6′
The first success for Stach
Fooled by the rebound, the German defender hooks Gift Orban who perfects towards goal. Logical warning.
3′
First corner for the Germans
Shot at the near post, it is cleared by Kumbedi.
1′
