The Lyonnais outclassed the Rangers playing in Glasgow, for the second act of the Europa League. Not without a double from Lacazette.
Silent in Ligue 1 after the start of the season, Alexandre Lacazette finally had some fun and found the fault
on the continental scene. Facing the Rangers, this Thursday evening in Glasgow, the captain of the Gones
fired all guns blazing.
Young Malick Fofana was already on board with the performance and scored early on after the race, with a good performance from Rayan Cherki (10e) and the entire doubles final (55e), the veteran striker took the spotlight as he should too, scoring twice rather than once (19e45e+1).
OL second in the general ranking
Twice served by Fofana, Lacazette delighted his team, notably scoring a second goal that looked like a golazo, just before the break – the achievement of the insurance KO for a valiant but messy Scottish team in the two zones of truth.
A second season won at the Olympics at Groupama Stadium (2-0), OL, with the winner of Toulouse in the weekend series in Ligue 1 (1-2), confirmed to Pride. With the key in the European League being a good second place in the general ranking (out of 36 clubs). Only Lazio, executioner of OGC Nice earlier in the evening (4-1), is ahead of Pierre Sage’s group on goal difference (+6 against +5).
