There will be four Ligue 1 clubs in the Champions League this season. A historic first! After PSG, AS Monaco and Stade Brestois, Losc won its place in the most prestigious European competition this Wednesday by overcoming Slavia Prague. Not without difficulty. And despite the defeat.
A week after their victory in Valenciennes (2-0), and at the end of a conclusive double confrontation against Fenerbahçe Istanbul in the third preliminary round of C1, the Dogues trembled in the Czech Republic, led from the 5the minute and an early goal from Zafeiris. An advantage logically held until the break, which the locals could have increased nevertheless with a little more realism.
Draw this Thursday at 6 p.m.
Fortunately for the Northerners, Chevalier in particular kept a close eye on things, and Zhegrova fired the necessary shot at the height of the threat (1-1, 77e), to give the necessary oxygen to his team. Lille did not have a serene end to the match, however; Schranz having struck for Prague in the process (2-1, 84e).
In the money time, three huge opportunities more or less were offered to the Czechs, who will have definitely sinned by clumsiness this Wednesday evening. So much the better for French football – and for Losc, who will know their fate on Thursday evening (draw starts at 6 p.m.).
