Cho was hot
It is a game that will be a milestone in his career.
From the height of his 17 years, Mohamed-Ali Cho put Olympique Lyonnais to death, causing no less than 4 yellow cards, including 2 for the only Maxwel Cornet (see below).
The Angevin striker appropriated the right lane, where he served Jimmy Cabot, decisive passer for the opener of Sofiane Boufal (20th).
He could have scored if Boufal had served him better on the counterattack (39th) and pushed Marcelo to the fault on the second goal (53rd).
The man of the match.
Boufal in a big day
In his first half hour, we recognized the Sofiane Boufal from Lille.
The one that cost Southampton a little less than € 20m before getting lost.
The Angevin attacking midfielder (27 years old), by his reading of the game and his technical ease, put the Lyonnais on the heels.
He found Traoré's header from a free kick (5th) and gave a good ball in the box to Doumbia (9th).
Rewarded by an opportunistic goal (20th), he is at the origin of the second (53rd) and obliges Lopes to a beautiful parade in stride (55th).
The heart of the SCO, and an infernal trio with Mohamed-Ali Cho and Angelo Fulgini.
Flops
Lopes-Marcelo, frying on the line
In slow motion, it's hard to see how the ball got through Anthony Lopes' hand on Jimmy Cabot's low cross.
The Portuguese goalkeeper did not make it easier for his team, already outdated in the game, after 20 minutes.
If he sometimes avoided the sinking, he also misunderstood Marcelo on an innocuous situation, the Brazilian's pass finishing in the Lyon nets (53rd).
The central defender could consider himself happy to be on the lawn: Mr. Turpin waited nearly 3 minutes before Mohamed-Ali Cho got up after an ugly tackle from Marcelo, and finally only sanctioned him with a yellow card (36th).
Symbol of Lyon's bad aggressiveness and a team that is always out of step.
Cornet cracking
We didn't expect him to put on the superhero cape, but neither did he bury OL like that. Maxwel Cornet has already had a heat stroke after a clear foul on Mohamed-Ali Cho at the start of the second half (49th). Then he was guilty of a tackle slipped very late on the same Angevin in the middle of the field (65th). Less than 5 seconds later, the left side had already left the pitch. An abandonment of post. As if he couldn't take Cho's flashes any longer. Reduced to 10 and already led 2-0 before Azzedine Ounahi's goal (77th), Olympique Lyonnais experienced a difficult end to the match and could have paid a higher bill if the SCO had not eased off.
