Opposed to his neighbor Etienne Sunday evening at Gerland in closing the 33rd day of Ligue 1, Lyon were held to a share of the points (2-2). Rulers, especially early in the game, les Gones were penalized by the early expulsion of Lindsay Rose. OL took the lead but remains more than ever under threat from PSG, while the Greens remain fifth behind OM.
Still hot, the derby between Olympique Lyonnais and AS Saint-Etienne has delivered on Sunday night at Stade de Gerland in closing the 33rd day of Ligue 1. In addition to the issue, the two teams playing the top of the table, the show was at the rendezvous, especially during a first period copiously dominated by Lyonnais, which have not been rewarded for their efforts since led 1-2 at the break . Admittedly, Lindsay Rose expelled before the half-hour mark, they did not simplify the task. But the troops of Jean-Michel Aulas eventually draw with a draw (2-2), which is rather PSG and OM business.
Determined to put pressure up at the end of the Parisians Gones start the meeting with a bang. Holder as Wednesday against Bastia (2-0), Clinton argued Njie his speed to stand alone against Stephane Ruffier, but the last day before Etienne wall (1e). And when it’s not international tricolor, the forézien captain, who saves on his line crossfire of Cameroon arrow (12). It is then the crossbar who helps Ruffier on a shot from the edge of the surface of Nabil Fekir (16th).
Curled up in their camp, the Greens will eventually packed with Fekir the service for Njie, who shows composure to convert the offering (1-0, 24th). While OL seems to have done the hard part, the scenario of the game will completely reverse in a few minutes. Well aware that his defense five is unable to stop the momentum Lyon, Christophe Galtier decides to replace Paul Baysse by Romain Hamouma (27th). In the process, Lindsay Rose stops from one hand to the surface a striking Landry Nguemo which seemed to take the direction of the goal (29th). Mr. Ennjimi not hesitate and designates the penalty spot before excluding the former defender of Valenciennes. Max-Alain Gradel takes cuffed Anthony Lopes (1-1, 31 ‘).
Despite being outnumbered, Lyon continues to attack but was caught on a perfectly concluded by Hamouma against which the pay luxury of a large bridge the keeper (1-2, 45th). Obviously frustrated by this first act they have dominated copiously but turned against them, the men of Hubert Fournier always show as enterprising after the break and soon equalized on a free kick eccentric Fekir perfectly extended the post header by Christophe Jallet (2-2, 48th).
After a tense moment, the 22 players feel the need to blow and the pace of the game suffers. Even Clément Grenier, again came into play after his comeback against Bastia, will fail this time to make a difference. Both teams thus avoid a defeat that could spell the end of their ambitions, but the draw does not help either. OL takes the top spot, but with the same number of points as PSG, which has a game in hand to play against Metz on 28 April. For its part, the ASSE stays behind OM due to a poorer goal difference.
