OL-Zenit (0-2), the cheat sheet: Too soft and too naive, Lyon has no shoulders to expect better – Eurosport.fr

The game: Possession Lyon vs cons Zenit

         As in Russia, Lyon has pretty well mastered the debates. With 60% of possession, OL gave up with the others. Especially during a successful match begins. Problem, Fournier’s men have failed to fulfill their high points, it is an evil recurring C1 this season. Zenit has quietly made the round back and relied on the power of Hulk to seize every opportunity. A game plan perfectly executed since the Russians scored two cons lightning. The Lyon naivety has helped them.
       

         
           
         
       

Players: Beauvue transparent Umtiti to fault

         It’s an old story. OL recruits are not up to par. Claudio Beauvue never existed against Zenit, getting lost in mishaps races. Mathieu Valbuena is still not the conductor expects that OL and Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa continues to spread its excitement. More seriously, contaminate Samuel Umtiti fault on both Russian goals. Alexandre Lacazette has still not found the light. Loss of confidence, it is not provided the slightest opportunity.
       

         Zenit has he, the duo of attack that makes the difference. On one hand, the power and speed of a Hulk absolutely untenable. On the other, his perfect complement, Artyom Dzyuba travel and at evil. All it lacks Lyon in the Champions League this season.
       

What could change everything: If Yanga-Mbiwa had not lost its support …

         32nd minute: Lyon comes to cash the opening goal but Lyon’s reaction is beautiful to see. Maxime Gonalons sends a missile hijacked by a large Yurin Lodygin. The ball favored foot Yanga-Mbiwa, alone at the far post. The goal is wide open and the central defender will put Lyon back on track. But instead of controlling the ball, Yanga-Mbiwa chooses the instant replay, endorsements and elude the lead ball six meters …
       

Yanga-Mbiwa (OL) against Zenit – AFP

The stat: 0/43

         This is hardly credible. OL has converted any of his 43 shots at Gerland in the Champions League this year. This means doubt that inhabits the attack OL Alexandre Lacazette in general and in particular.
       

The tweet that breaks the last hopes of the OL

“We are not there to do Accounts apothecary. It would rather win at least one match in the group stage. It seems miraculous that we can mathematically still hope to qualify. “

The question: Good last in its group, Lyon is it for him

         Yes, yes and thrice yes. In the game, Lyon has yet given the comparison against Valencia and during the double confrontation against Zenit St. Petersburg. But by repeating the same mistakes and give the stick to get beat, OL reaped what he deserves. All Lyon individuals are disappointing in the European Cup. Lacazette to Yanga-Mbiwa, of Umtiti to Valbuena. Young Lyons shoots, so exciting year in Ligue 1, fail to pass the level. The naivete of the rearguard is heartbreaking. The excitement of Yanga-Mbiwa rubbed off on a Umtiti in big trouble in the two games against the Russians.
       

         OL does not have broad enough shoulders to do well. Yet the expensive recruitment and the draw left him foresee a mild stretch until February European destiny. The reality is hard to take for a team that clearly affects its limits since September. Has there been too good OL? He still has two matches to challenge. More than qualification for the 8th finals C1, frankly compromised Wednesday evening is the Europa League that men should aim for Hubert Fournier. It would be a lot of good but bland consolation Lyon has definitely not deserved better.
