Olympique Lyonnais beat Toulouse (3-2) in Ligue 1 advanced match of the 26th day of the season. Lyon are provisionally nine points ahead of play-off Nantes who will host Strasbourg on Saturday.
Ryan Cherki came on and scored a goal and an assist for the Lyon side. The Lyon captain, ill, ultimately did not return to the field after the break and no doubt he then had difficulty recognizing his team from the bench. The match gave birth to a crazy scenario with a history of the bench as a backdrop.
