Jean-Michel Aulas has been at the head of Olympique Lyonnais for 36 years. A tribute was paid to him before the match, with several tifos designed especially to thank him.
Supporters also held signs reading "Thank you JMA" Aulas then left his place to join the stand of the Bad Gones, where he attended the first half. He also brought good luck to his family since OL led 2-0 at half-time against Reims.
