The defeat of Olympique Lyonnais in Rennes (2-1) continues to be talked about. Besides the frustration of the result, it is above all arbitration that crystallizes anger. Supporters, consultants and observers have followed one another to denounce decisions deemed incomprehensible, with Ruddy Buquet and Stéphanie FRAPPART in line.
Govou increases the tone
In the columns of ProgressSidney Govou did not hesitate to speak to say his discomfort. “I do not like to talk about the refereeing, but on this match, it is not far from being shameful,” launched the former OL striker. He focused on two key episodes: the lack of use of video on Merah's action and the red card inflicted on Morton, considered “very severe” in view of the images.
Govou was not limited to arbitral criticism. According to him, OL has not been able to show enough vice against a more experienced Rennes team. The consultant regrets that his former teammates could not better manage weak times and avoid costly mistakes far from their goal.
Complicated prospects
With a workforce still in running, Paulo Fonseca must now re -mobilize his troops. Between Ligue 1 and the Europa League, Lyon will need all its players. But the disputed decisions this weekend may leave a bitter taste before approaching a series of crucial matches.
