Thanks to a hat-trick notably of Heung-Min Son, the Los Angeles FC dominated Real Salt Lake on the 4-1 score last night in Major League Soccer, the elite of North American football. This to consolidate its fourth place in the Western Conference, with obviously the online sights of sight.
In his cage, Hugo Lloris contributed to his own victory by splitting up a banal judgment on an opposing penalty pulled by Rwan Cruz. While he had taken the former porter and captain of the Blues on the other hand, the latter saw his strike pushed by the post and failed in the feet of the last French bulwark, not without having along the goal line.
11 duels won over 114 penalties suffered
For Hugo Lloris, this is a happy and little academic parade, certainly, but it is also and above all an end of series. The former Niçois and Lyon had no longer won his penalty duel in fact since June 28, 2021, against Switzerland at the Euro.
Since then, the record holder of tricolor selections (145 capes) had lost systematically, in previous 14. Rather friable in the exercise over his entire career, Hugo Lloris has collected a total of 103 penalties. For 11 opposing stops or failures only.
