OL's big blow

OL got the better of RCSA this Sunday at the end of the 9th day of Ligue 1. On the wire and at the cost of a scenario rich in twists and turns (2-1).

While the Alsatians opened the scoring with the inevitable Panichelli in this match (25th) – the Argentine's 8th goal of the season – the Gones quickly came back to the score on a score from Doukouré (31st), before seeing Tolisso stumble on Penders from the penalty spot (43rd).

It was finally in the last moments of the game that the Rhone residents were able to make the difference, with a marvelous strike curled by Moreira (90th + 1), who had replaced at short notice a Fofana who came out injured after a bad tackle from the unfortunate Doukouré, sent off instantly (67th).

Thanks to this success, the Lyonnais are back level with OM, at the foot of the podium. The Strasbourg side are in seventh position, two lengths behind their evening opponents.
