Author of a double and having therefore unlocked his goal counter, Alexandre Lacazette was able to smile again. With two more goals, the OL captain becomes the top French scorer in the Europa League.
The two took to social media after the victory against the Rangers (1-4), but Malick Breathe and Alexander Lacazette were indeed two of the great artisans on Thursday evening. With two goals and an assist, the Belgian broke the screen, but his friend’s double is far from being anecdotal. Still looking for his first goal this season, Lacazette killed two birds with one stone at Ibrox Stadium. A relief for the OL captain for whom the wait was starting to be long. In addition to getting closer to Juninho as Lyon’s top scorer in the European Cup (18 against 17), the “General” continues to make the Europa League his garden.
The podium as a new goal
Having not tasted European competition since 2020-2021, Alexandre Lacazette had fallen a little behind in its rise in the rankings. Two games after his return, he became the French co-top scorer in the history of the Europa League on Thursday evening. With 24 achievements, he returned to Kévin Gameiro and now has a new target: that of joining the top 3 of the best scorers in the competition. He is only two lengths away from achieving it.
