What an end to the match for the Niçois!
Led 2 goals to 0 until the 81st minute, the Aiglons overthrew Olympique Lyonnais by scoring three goals in ten minutes.
OL got scuttled and missed the opportunity to get on the podium in the Ligue 1 standings.
Peter Bosz's players had started this meeting well, creating the first chances, like a head from Lucas Paqueta in the 7th minute, well captured by Benitez.
Dominator in possession of the ball (59% for OL, 41% for Nice at the end of the match), Toko Ekambi opened the scoring in the 35th, well served by a long cross from Boateng.
Aouar then made the break in the middle of the second half, scoring the 2-0 right-footed goal in the 68th minute.
Nice takes the podium
But the Lyonnais then foiled, jostled by a first individual feat of Atal, who left on the right side of the Nice attack, eliminating Boateng with an inside hook on his right foot before winning his duel with Lopes with a strike from the left foot, placed under the bar (81st).
Reduced to ten in the 85th minute after a violent tackle from Kawadere on Bard, OL made more mistakes, causing a penalty in the 89th, transformed by Delort, then suffering a third goal scored by Guessand in added time (90th + 3 ′).
The striker had entered the lawn of the Allianz Arena ten minutes earlier.

With this new success, the sixth this season, Christophe Galtier's men take provisional second place in the Ligue 1 standings, with 19 points.
Lyon is 8th with 16 points.
The afternoon matches, including a meeting between Lens (3rd) and Metz (19th), could once again shake up this ranking.
