Already at the bottom of the hole, Olympique Lyonnais continues to dig deeper game after game, and the arrival on the bench of Fabio Grosso does not seem likely to change anything. Thus, overtaken the day before in the ranking by Clermont, author of a good draw against PSG (0-0), the Rhone club “preserved” its last place this Sunday at the end of the 7th day of Ligue 1 in passing sadly through Reims…
From Rémois who, for their part, confirm their very good start to the season since this success against OL (2-0), oh so logical and deserved, allows them to take, at least provisionally, second place in the ranking behind Monaco, and ahead of Brest on goal difference. Great work, therefore, for the Champagne team, who practically did not have to exert their talent this Sunday to dominate the Lyonnais without spring or pride.
OL simply held out for 45 minutes before breaking down and conceding a goal in stoppage time in the first period by Munetsi, well served by his Japanese friend Ito, in all the good moves this Sunday (1-0, 45 1e). The second act saw the Rhone residents have a very timid reaction, probably too much towards an opposing goalkeeper, Diouf, author of a flawless performance with six saves. And in the 70th minute, Abdelhamid came to punish the visitors by breaking (2-0). Plunging them a little further into the darkness at the bottom of the table.
