Lyon-Nantes (1-1): Lacazette saves OL and goes a bit more into the club’s history

Leon needs a savior in these difficult times. His full name is found: Alexandre LacazetteH. The striker had scored two goals last week to snatch Draw against Lille (3-3). This Friday evening, he painted himself again. Le Gone responded to Nantes’ opener and scored his 150th goal in an OL shirt (1-1, 24). In doing so, he overtook Bernard Lacombe and became the club’s second highest scorer in the club’s history, 72 lengths behind Fleury de Nallo. “It’s good, I’m happy and proud, the striker will slide into the Prime Video microphone. Passing in front of Bernard is a big thing.”

But the Lyon champion’s match ended in the 65th minute, after pain in his left leg. The crowd at Groupama Stadium thanked the game with a standing ovation. In addition to his goal, the 31-year-old striker was invaluable in the game, as his many throw-ins allowed the ball to rotate more smoothly. On the right side, he often combined with Bradley Barkola and Syle Combede. Lacazette ‘The General’ could have scored two goals, but his close range saw him pushed back by an incredible reaction.Alban Lafont (45 + 1).

Olympique Lyonnais was punished, as is often the case, for making a very poor start to the match. From the third minute, the defense capitulated. Maxence Caqueret lost a ball in midfield after pressure from Andre Girotto. Nantes striker Mustapha Mohamed sprinted on goal but was stumped by Remy Rio. The ball bounced off the unfortunate Castelo Lukeba, who scored against his own team (0-1, 3).

So OL tied the third tie and still stagnates in 10th place in the standings. For its part, FC Nantes occupies the 14th place. But the Canaries could have achieved more, as Jean-Charles Castelletto said after the match: “We play away, we leave with a point, that’s very good. We had chances, Mostafa Mohamed in particular. We’ll be content with that.”

Laurent Blanc said he was particularly “disappointed” with the Prime Video microphone. “It’s very disappointing,” the Lyon coach reiterated. “We can do better, we can do more but again we end the game with regret,” Lacazette adds.
