Lille-OL, one draw and two disappointments

Losc and OL delivered a high-intensity match this Friday as part of the 10e day of Ligue 1. A poster at the top of the elite which kept all its promises but did not designate a winner (1-1). Each of the two teams having had their quarter of an hour of glory.

The Mastiffs, however, did everything to win by quickly taking the initiative of the game, then the advantage on the scoreboard thanks to David on the lookout for a poorly adjusted back pass from Maitland-Niles (1 -0.17e). By dint of knocking on wood, however, the Northerners were unable to widen the gap, thus remaining within reach of their opponents.

Frustrating for both teams

In the second half, inevitably, the Gones rebelled, hitting the goalposts in turn and finally achieving their goals in added time, with a nice recovery slammed by the young Fofana (1-1, 90e+1). A logical equalization in view of the involvement of the two teams.

This sharing of points, however, does not satisfy either team. If Lille temporarily steals third place from an OM expected in Nantes on Sunday evening, the second position occupied by Monaco surprised at home by Angers (0-1) was also playable. OL for their part are content with a provisional fifth place, with a second consecutive frustrating draw after the result recorded at home against Auxerre last weekend.
