Tops
The former Lyon player put in a top-notch performance this evening. Against his former club, he quickly stood out with his sense of the game this evening. He lit the first fuse in the 14th minute with a beautiful blocked volley. He then showed off his technique, chaining crossbars and controls. The leather sticks to his foot in the 22nd for a magnificent center control sequence. Overall, he made life hell for Tagliafico, who was in trouble throughout the game.
The midfielder performed excellently this evening. Omnipresent in recovery, he scratched a significant number of balls. He was also a real launching pad for his attackers, whom he launched perfectly throughout the evening. His action in the 57th minute can sum up his match: he recovered the ball from Caqueret’s feet, then slalomed towards the Lyon defense before striking. Even if Lopes pushes back, it’s a good summary of his match. Excellent copy made by the Brest community.
Eric Roy was particularly inspired. When his team failed to open the scoring, he decided to start Mounié, Martin and Brahimi. And it was from former Montpellier Steve Mounié that the opening score came. Perfectly served by Lala after a first cross from Brahimi, the center forward takes the lead perfectly to allow his team to take the lead. Winning coaching.
Flops
Non-existent, invisible, beneath everything… there are not enough adjectives to describe the performance of the Lyon trio. Tolisso, Caqueret and Akouokou never managed to influence the match. Very few recoveries, never any control, these three were not able to help their team. Skelly Alvero, put in the stands for his lateness to the chat, could well have his chance in the next match.
On social networks, Lyon supporters had already praised him following his return against Le Havre. The Portuguese was quick to extinguish hopes. Aligned as a left winger in the 4-3-3 in the evening, he was deprived of balls and wasted the few he had by losing them. We won’t judge him yet for his first tenure in this collective slump, but it’s still a disappointment.
Not often in sight offensively lately, Tagliafico and Kumbedi had also decided to let the Brest attackers go behind their backs. If the youngest at least had the merit of escaping his weekly yellow, both were completely overwhelmed this evening. Completely overwhelmed defensively, they did not attempt to move up their lane. A match to forget, and a level to regain.
