She threw a party in Lyon and Lance got a six! Frank Aiche’s well-worked side won an emphatic 3-0 in the ‘Groupama’ and ended Olympique’s four-game winning streak, keeping them in the bottom half of the table.
For that treble to come for Lance, Sotoka had to open the way in the 43rd minute, capitalizing on Pereira da Costa’s set-up to make it 1-0 in a first half that was balanced and had good moments from both sides. However, that goal, and the spot that came with it, was enough to dampen the spirits of the hosts who went into the second half with…anarchy for the upset and pressed on.
First, conceding a penalty which Wahi converted to make it 2-0 in the 53rd minute, capitalizing on his side’s lead. With Dancho in the 87th minute, after three minutes earlier Maitland-Niles had left Lyon with one less player, giving dimensions of triumph to the visitors’ three points.
