OL: the superb inspiration of Ainsley Maitland-Niles against PSG

This Sunday, Olympique Lyonnais hosted Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the 12th day of Ligue 1. And despite numerous absences on both sides, the match got off to a hellish start. While PSG led 2 goals to 1 at half-time, Les Gones came back with good intentions after returning from the locker room.

Better yet, Paulo Fonseca’s men were quick to equalize. Found in depth, Ainsley Maitland-Niles escaped towards goal taking advantage of poor marking from Illia Zabarnyi. Inspired, the former Arsenal saw Lucas Chevalier very advanced and took the opportunity to adjust the Parisian goalkeeper with a wonderful lob. A great response for the Englishman, criticized in recent weeks after several failed meetings.
