The international break continues for Lille. During the night from Friday to Saturday until the end of the day, of the six LOSC players called up, only four took part in the matches. Here is a brief overview.
Jonathan David offers victory with an assist
Better known for his finishing qualities, Jonathan David allowed Canada to win their quarter-final first leg match at the Concacaf Nations League with an assist against Suriname. 81st minute, the Lille player finds himself in the area after a magnificent chest drop. He sees his teammate Junior Hoilett and serves him in his race. Canada's number 10 steals the ball, bar coming in. Canada leads 1-0. This will be the final score of the match. The return match will take place on Wednesday, November 20 at BMO Field in Toronto.
Facing Guinea during the CAN 2025 qualifiers, the Democratic Republic of Congo lost in added time (1-0) on a goal from Serhou Guirassy. A defeat in which the LOSC player Ngal'ayel Mukau entered on the hour mark. The Leopards are second in Group H and will host Ethiopia (already eliminated) on Tuesday, November 19.

Olmeta could not avoid the draw
Author of a quality performance with France U20 against Denmark U20, Lissandro Olmeta made numerous saves (4′,45’64’). Despite Jérémy Jacquet opening the score before half-time on a stray ball in the area (43′), the young LOSC goalkeeper and son of former Blues goalkeeper Pascal Olmeta was unable to avoid the match null. At the very end of the game, on a point-blank header from Jonathan Foss, Olmeta's son conceded a goal. Final score 1-1.
In the defeat of the French U18s against the Netherlands U18s, Lille's Soriba Diaoune and Ramsès Imbondo, for their part, did not take part in the match. Finally, their team lost by the smallest of margins (0-1).
