TOPS

Kadewere savior of Lyon


He had dreamed it and he did!

Entered just before the hour mark (57th), Tino Kadewere changed everything.

His team was still led (0-1) when he entered but it did not last.

The Lyon striker overturned the derby on his own by signing a saving double (3 goals in L1).

What to offer the 121st derby against Saint-Etienne, this Sunday evening during the 10th day of Ligue 1, in an unfortunately empty Groupama Stadium.

The Zimbabwe player scored his first goal of the evening on a magnificent Madjer following a very good free kick combination (1-1, 65th).

His second goal is his personal work.

The 24-year-old striker hit on the left side and dribbled Camara before deceiving Moulin in a mouse hole (2-1, 74th).

Remarkable.

Within the week, he said he would score a brace in the derby.

Thing said, thing done.

1 - Tino Kadewere became the 1st player to score 2+ goals after coming on in a game between Lyon and St Etienne in Ligue 1 in the history of the showdown.

OL's stunning second half


Shaken up in the first half, Lyon made a great comeback in the second act.

More incisive and determined, Rudi Garcia's men showed a much better face.

Captain Memphis Depay was fairer (shots in the 5th and 53rd).

Fast and dangerous, Karl Toko Ekambi hit the post (71st) then fell on a good Saint Etienne goalkeeper at the end of the match (90th + 4).

And finally, Kadewere was obviously the man of the match.

Thanks to this great success, Lyon now ranks 5th in Ligue 1.

The great first period of the Greens


Everything had started well for the Greens.

Very focused and dynamic, Saint-Etienne had a very good first period and was rightly rewarded with a goal from Lopes against his camp just before half-time on a clever shot from Bouanga (0-1, 40th).

In front at the break, the Stéphanois defended well and until then made the perfect match.

They left no space for the Lyonnais and conceded few chances. 

FLOPS

Bouanga and his team collapsed


The Greens eventually cracked.

Less solid and enterprising, Claude Puel's men did not hold their advantage in the second half.

They did not know how to contain the Lyon assaults and Kadewere trampled all the efforts of the Greens made in the first act.

Especially since ASSE had few opportunities after the break.

Bouanga, at the origin of the opening of the score, was the symbol of the Saint-Etienne collapse.

The striker inherited a penalty due to a hand in the area of ​​Jean Lucas at the end of the match (88th).

Penalty he missed by shooting too far to the left of the goal.

The Greens can therefore harbor regrets.

Consequently, they have a sixth loss in a row and go down to 15th place.

Dembélé and Lyonnais frustrated in the first period


Moussa Dembélé is the big loser on the Lyon side.

The center forward, who has not scored since the last derby last March (doubled in the 2-0 victory against Saint-Etienne), missed his derby.

Established by Rudi Garcia, the French striker did not know how to take advantage of it.

He even represented his team's frustration in the first half.

The Lyonnais had a hard time finding the loophole in the Stéphane defense.

And Dembélé was refused two goals for offside (10th and 31st).

To top it off, he gave way to the double scorer.

What to question his place in the starting XI in the coming weeks.

0/21 - Players who have attempted the most shots without scoring in Ligue 1 2020/21:



Moussa Dembele - 21
