Events
Match Events
- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Olympique Lyonnais and OGC Nice has kicked off!
- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Anthony Lopes, as he is very good at scoring at Groupama Stadium with 2 goals in the last 2 games.
- 10' Jeff Reine-Adelaide does the damage! The net is bulging and Olympique Lyonnais surge ahead!
- 15' OGC Nice fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 20' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering OGC Nice that had 445 games and scored 371 goals.
- 25' The energy levels are beginning to show. Rudi Garcia might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 28' Against the run of play, Moussa Dembele has scored! This game has turned on its head.
- 33' Controversy at the stadium! Jeff Reine-Adelaide argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 34' A meaty challenge results in booking for Marcal on 34.
- 37' Another substitution for Olympique Lyonnais to replace Jeff Reine-Adelaide by Youssouf Kone on 37 minute.
- 42' Kasper Dolberg needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 46' Time for substitution for OGC Nice. Christophe Herelle is replaced by Malang Sarr.
- 51' Over 51 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 56' Poor challenge from Dante. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 61' Ignatius Ganago makes way for Myziane Maolida at the 61 minute mark. A tactical switch from OGC Nice.
- 65' OGC Nice receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 65.
- 70' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Lucas Tousart suffering a number of foals already.
- 71' It is a substitution in Olympique Lyonnais team. Bertrand Traore is replaced by Maxwel Cornet on 71 minute.
- 76' Christophe Herelle is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Olympique Lyonnais tonight.
- 78' The deadlock is broken! Kasper Dolberg gets on the scoresheet on 78 minutes.
- 79' Rafael is replacing Martin Terrier for the Olympique Lyonnais side.
- 84' OGC Nice come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 86' That is a Red card for OGC Nice. Patrick Burner will be fuming at that decision.
- 90' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Thiago Mendes.
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 2-1 draw is a fair result on the day.
