Olympique Lyonnais left Paris with a taste of defeat in their mouth. Les Gones certainly brought back the point of the draw (3-3) from their trip to Jean Bouin but this sharing of points against Paris FC looked like a defeat. Consequence of a scenario which could only leave them with regrets.
Perfectly launched by Corentin Tolisso, scorer from the 5e minute of play, OL then led 3-0 at the hour mark before collapsing in the last half hour, conceding three goals in less than twenty minutes. The exclusion of Albert Vinicius from the 61ste minute obviously didn’t help, but the Parisians also finished the match with ten men…
The Lyon players did not hide their disappointment at the end of the meeting. “There is no explanation, it’s difficult. We must manage better. We must never let the opponent go back to 3-0, it’s inexcusable, it’s a shame.” said Clinton Mata at the Ligue1+ microphone.
OL could have come back to match PSG
“There are no excuses, and we have to say things to each other. We’ll talk about it with the group. It’s like a defeat, he continued, regretting this missed opportunity to come back to the level of PSG. We still left this bit of luck for the opponent to come back. We had the opportunity to carry out a great operation, but these opportunities will not present themselves every time: we will have to seize them. »
The story was the same in the mouth of Dominik Greif, the Gones goalkeeper. “There’s nothing to say, I didn’t touch the ball and then I conceded three goals. Why can’t we keep this result? I don’t know. We absolutely must change all of this, and quickly, he cursed. Frustration and anger? Yes of course. It’s not normal to lose points in such a match. »
