Lyon was forced to share points this Sunday in Nice, at the end of the 3rd day of L1 (0-0).
After two initial defeats, conceded in Strasbourg (2-1) and at home in front of Montpellier (1-4), OL still trampled this Sunday on the lawn of Nice. At the end of an intense match without much relief, in a sometimes electric atmosphere, the two teams left back to back (0-0). A goalless draw that does not help anyone, and especially not the Gones…
Deprived of Lacazette, suspended, the Lyonnais could not rely on the youth of Cherki and Barcola, both much less inspired than last season. The Aiglons played most of the game but never knew how to find the final right gesture in their 21 attempts against the opposing goal. Whether Moffi, Laborde, Diop or Sanson.

On arrival, OL therefore remained painfully stuck in the red zone, in 17e and penultimate position in the standings, with a small point on the counter like Lens or Nantes. Only Clermont doing worse with a persistent zero point after three days of the championship. The Gym does not advance much faster. With a third parity score in as many outings, after two draws against Lille (1-1) and Lorient (1-1), Francesco Farioli’s Nice are still looking for themselves.
