This Saturday evening, Olympique Lyonnais welcomed Stade Rennais at Groupama Stadium, on the 31st day of Ligue 1. Fofana opened the scoring from the eighth minute of play by sending the leather in the opposite skylight (1-0). Tolisso made the break of a sublime dish of the foot which left Samba on the spot (2-0, 25th). Lacazette tripled the set before half-time, of the right foot, in force (3-0, 39th).
In the second period, the Rennes managed to reduce the scoring. Following a blunder of Almada, who focused against his camp, Meïté had only to conclude closely (3-1, 50th). However, the men of Paulo Fonseca did not really be procrastinating. As soon as it came into play, Mikautadze assured them the victory of a superb volley in the skylight after a chest control (4-1, 78th).
Lyon puts pressure on Monaco and Marseille
Thanks to this victory, OL temporarily dates back to fourth place in the ranking. The Rhone club is ideally replaced in the race for qualifying places for the next Champions League. Indeed, Cherki and his teammates have 54 points, only one length late on AS Monaco and Olympique de Marseille.
