Djalo is gaining momentum
A goal that falls just right. Author of his first goal with the Mastiffs, Thiago Djalo, with a little academic gesture (28th), got his people out of a bad situation in a first act rather dominated by Angers. But the contribution of the Portuguese international hopefuls, still fresh to accelerate the game at the end of the game (90th), goes beyond the strict framework of this goal. Installed in central hinge since the injury of Sven Botman, the young defender finally expresses himself in his favorite position, in line with his performances in the Champions League in particular, where his taste for the duel and his liveliness allow him to form a complementary pair with his compatriot José Fonte.
The good shot of Ounahi
As for Djalo, his good performance goes beyond his goal at the end of the match, his second in Ligue 1 (83rd). A goal as well deserved for the SCO as for its Moroccan environment, which shone during the meeting. First to get into action, he sent a first thrill in the Pierre-Mauroy Stadium after a high recovery (2nd). Always available in the midfield (84 balls affected), he was also decisive in the recovery (11 duels won). A first tenure for five matches which calls for others.
Sanches is much better in the middle
Too often disappointing on the right side, Renato Sanches operates a successful refocusing towards midfield.
Alongside the combative Benjamin André, the Portuguese midfielder signed a new successful service which confirms the complementarity between the two men.
Very active until his exit (75th), the former Bayern was one of the only Lille to continue to engage in movement, as on this festival on the left side which deserved a better fate (35th).
He takes advantage of the doubtful alignment of the SCO to sign his first
assist
of the season, on the goal of his compatriot Djalo (38th).

Flops
The LOSC punished at the end of the match
The main thing is the three points, the pragmatists will be satisfied. But unlike last year, this is no longer enough for the Mastiffs. Four days after an exciting performance in Seville (2-1), the LOSC fell back into its failings with an amorphous animation and dependent only on the acceleration of Sanches or Bamba. Certainly not favored by a lawn that has deteriorated over the course of the meeting, the reigning champion has long left the ball to his opponent without giving up too much, before logically being equalized.
Yilmaz still in withdrawal
Absent in Seville on Tuesday, where LOSC learned to win without him, Burak Yilmaz had a disappointing return. Silent for two months in Ligue 1, the "Kral" could have delivered his own on a match point in the 95th minute but the latter ... slipped. A lack of success symptomatic of the current difficulties of one of the great architects of the title of champion of France last year. If he tried (20th, 35th, 36th), however, he lacks sharpness ... when he is not reported offside. To his credit, his movement and his availability, he who did not hesitate to dezone on the sides.
Bahoken went through the meeting like a shadow
Preferred to the revelation Mohamed-Ali Cho, Stéphane Bahoken disappointed.
Holder for the third time this season only, the Cameroonian did not exist (22 balls played, lower total of the SCO) until his exit for the benefit of the French international hope (63rd).
He also left very angry, without greeting his trainer.
