Tops
Bellegarde, precious activity
Holder at the heart of the midfield, Jean-Ricner Bellegarde shone in this Strasbourg team . Precious by his slaughter, he extinguished the opposing circles thanks to a beautiful activity. Author of 5 tackles and recovering 6 balls, he won a lot of duels and allowed his team to hold the shock.
Lala, striking on the left
Usual right side, Kenny Lala had to troubleshoot on the left with the suspension of Lionel Carole. And the Strasbourg defender was very impactful. Facing Traore, he suffered first but ended up taking the measure of his opponent. We have often seen him bring danger to the opposing camp with some fine forays. He could even have scored on a strike hitting the post (87th).
Better at Traoré
Long in doubt, Bertrand Traoré has achieved a good performance. Bursting with the ball, the Burkinabé opened the scoring with a perfect whim (21st). Very close to the double on another head, next this time (32nd), he was less messy in his dribbling.
Liénard, the most threatening
Dimitri Liénard's left leg has frightened OL a lot. The Alsatian milieu was most present in terms of attempts, which were all threatening. In the last quarter of an hour, he had several great chances, including an offset free kick to hit the amount (90th + 3).
flops
Aouar, less bright
A decisive scorer against OM, Houssem Aouar was below his real level against Strasbourg. Losing a lot of balls, he never put OL in the right direction by not offering movement and by not playing vertically enough. He also was not successful in his dribbles.
Lyon plays wirelessly
Again, OL did not show anything consistent in this match. There is no common thread in this team, with few opportunities created over the 90 minutes. Rudi Garcia had chosen to spare Dembélé to bring him into the second period but the entry of the French center-forward did not change anything, the latter being particularly nervous. The Lyonnais see the podium move away over the weeks.
