Lyon hold, Le Havre and Angers revolt

A sad scenario takes shape for Olympique Lyonnais. The Paulo Fonseca team lost to AS Monaco (0-2) this Saturday in Ligue 1, definitively buried the Gones' dream-7th to one day from the end-to play the Champions League next season.

This setback left a bitter taste in the Rhone locker room, starting with Alexandre Lacazette. Visibly affected, the French striker did not hide his disappointment with the final whistle.

The weight of regrets

“There are a lot of regrets, nervousness, disappointment. We feel sorry for all the supporters who believed in us ”said the former Gunner.

For the Rhone captain, this evening in the Principality perfectly symbolizes the Lyon season. “Tonight is like the season: we were good and finally we make mistakes. We must assume as a team. This is what hurts tonight: being present in a big match, against a big team, and give them two goals, knowing that they do not need that. Still no C1, it hurts when we had the means, we killed ourselves, it hurts. What did he miss tonight? Score a goal than the opponent ”replied Lacazette.
