ASSE had not won the derby against OL in its cauldron since October 2019 and a goal at the last second of striker Slovenian Robert Beric (1-0). This Sunday evening to close the 30e Ligue 1 lifting, five years later, the Greens returned to the win against their best Lyon enemies. After a crazy match (2-1).
The match suspended just before the break for a projectile jet on one of the assistant referees of Mr. Letexier, Saint-Etienne could have sink and moped in his relegation position-only the match indeed resumed after 45 minutes of interruption and the Pierzien club went to seek three precious points in the race for maintenance.
Before this incident, the Stéphanois had carried out the first perfect act almost, finding the fault by Stassin from the 10the minute. A Belgian goalscorer who a quarter of an hour later, however, bordered by the correction. First expelled by Mr. Letexier for a fatal sole in Tolisso, Stassin was miraculously saved by the Var. The turning point perhaps of this derby, but certainly a big controversy.
OL, the cruel week
Because in the second act of the game, it was he still, Stassin, who broke the nail, having the Rhodanian nets defended by Deschamps with a pretty distant strike again (2-0, 67e). After a post sounded by Maitland-Niles, Tessman was relying on the Gones at the start of the last quarter of an hour (2-1, 76e). In vain.
ASSE after 30 days of the championship remains in the red in 17e Position, but in the same unit now as the Havre barragist. A real reason for hope for the future. For OL, on the other hand, the consequences of this defeat are annoying. Three days after Manchester's dramatic scenario in the quarter-final of the Europa League (5-4 defeat after extension), Lyon slides in sixth position and sees the Champions League moving away. Cruel week.
