Events

Match Events

  • 25' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Olympique Lyonnais winning 100% of all matches.
  • 30' With 3 assists to his name this season, Amin Sarr is clearly more than just a goal scorer for OGC Nice.
  • 32' A moment of madness from Youssouf Ndayishimiye on 32 minutes earns him a Yellow card. OGC Nice will be frustrated.
  • 37' OGC Nice is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 42' Sinaly Diomande is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Olympique Lyonnais tonight.
  • 47' OGC Nice have won 382 goals from 451 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.

  • 89' A tactical swap from Olympique Lyonnais — Mohamed Elarouch on, Rayan Cherki off on 89 minutes.
