The tops
Guimaraes, the boss
Like at home. Already. Four days after his excellent performance against Juventus Turin, Bruno Guimaraes shone again. The Brazilian recruited this winter reigned in the midfield. Omnipresent in the first period, his forward-inspired passes hurt the Greens very badly. Its presence and its slaughter enhance Aouar and Tousart, also to their advantage.
Dembélé's double
Unstoppable in 2020, Moussa Dembélé distinguished himself during this derby by scoring a double. First a shoulder scorer, the Rhone striker doubled the bet at the very end of the match, with a panenka from the penalty spot. It consolidates its third place in the scorer ranking, behind Mbappé and Ben Yedder.
Impassable Lopes
Logical winner, OL was nevertheless scared in the second half. But the Gones were able to count on the saving parades of Anthony Lopes. Unemployed before the break, the Lyon goalkeeper then left the big game, in particular to repel a free kick from Bouanga a quarter of an hour from the end.
The flops
The horrible first period of the Greens
Beaten 2-0, ASSE paid dearly for its first catastrophic period. The Greens showed absolutely nothing good for forty-five minutes one way. Lower on the plans, the Stéphanois displayed unworthy statistics at the break. With only 22% of possession and 62% of successful passes on 111 (Opta). Very happy to join the locker room with only one goal behind, Saint-Etienne failed to materialize his start after the break.
Debuchy in arrears
Promoted captain of the Greens in the absence of Perrin and Ruffier, Mathieu Debuchy suffered in his right lane. The former international, surpassed against Terrier and Marçal, notably caused the free kick at the origin of the opening of the score. Feverish defensively, he made absolutely nothing on the offensive level.
