After leading for almost an hour, OL finally conceded a draw against TFC on Friday, in the first match of the 10th day of Ligue 1.
Lyon still can’t do it. Despite Tetê’s opener in the second minute, Lyon was finally held in check by Toulouse (1-1) this Friday, at Groupama Stadium, in the first match of the 10th day of Ligue 1. After four consecutive defeats , the Gones chained a fifth match in a row without success and sank into crisis. Toulouse, which remained on three consecutive losses outside, takes an important point for the maintenance.
However, Lyon got into their match very well by quickly opening the scoring thanks to Head (1-0, 2nd). Both teams tried to put their foot on the ball and achieved good possession phases. On the Lyonnais side, Lacazette was very available, dropping very low to touch the balls and even direct the game. The Lyon captain also took care of set pieces, as on this dangerous header from Tolisso on a corner (42nd). On the Toulouse side, midfielder Van Den Boomen attracted all the balls and was dangerous, Spierings seeing his shot hit the crossbar (43rd).
And Lyon ended up giving in…
Without being particularly dangerous, the Toulousains did not let themselves go when they returned from the locker room. Lyon still had the opportunity to make the break, like this strike from Toko Ekambi (52nd), in vain. And it was finally the Toulouse who shook the nets, Ratao equalizing after a ball stupidly lost by the Rhone defense (67th). Everything was still possible in this undecided meeting, but the score remained there and the meeting ended under the whistles of the stadium (1-1 final score), the Toulouse goalkeeper Dupé having spared no effort (7 saves).
In the standings, Olympique Lyonnais is in seventh place before the rest of the day, with 14 points, two more than the promoted Toulouse, 12th (12 pts). Peter Bosz’s position already seemed to be hanging by a thread before the match. The Dutch coach is even closer to leaving after this disappointment… Next meeting for Les Gones? It will be next week against the Stade Rennes of Bruno Genesio, a former member of the house.
