Incredible match, incredible victory for Lyon.
Olympic prevailed 4-3 at home against this year’s terrible Brest and achieved a “three point” with a European flavor. After finding themselves at -2 from the top six and increasing their chances of a ticket to the Conference League or Europa League.
In 2nd place remained the visitors, who lost the opportunity to achieve a significant victory (due to the value of the opponent) in their effort to exit the Champions League.
The match had a dramatic finish, with Lyon winning a penalty after Lacazette was brought down by the opposition goalkeeper, which was indicated via VAR, although it was a clear challenge. THE Maitland-Niles took over the execution, left no room for Bizo and shaped the final score in 90’+16′.
Earlier, Mr Toliso he made it 1-0 in the 18th minute and that was the score of the half. In the second half, the guests turned the situation around, scoring three goals in less than a quarter of an hour, with Meunier (60′) and Del Castillo (64′, 67′).
Lyon did not throw in a white towel and made the improbable turnaround. THE Lacazette gave the signal with a goal in the 70th minute, while with a diagonal shot o Taliafiko equalized in the 79th minute. To follow the improbable finale.
