In Lyon the awakening.
OL have a second consecutive success in Ligue 1, against Lens (2-1).
A short and precious success for the Rhodaniens, who have regained their colors lately, quite the opposite of RC Lens, which has recorded a 4th game in a row without success in the league.
A complicated meeting for the Artésiens, who fell on an opportunistic team at first.
Because despite a good start in intentions, they were surprised on a good combination between Cherki and Lacazette concluded by the Lyon striker (1-0, 23rd).
If they came back to score by their side Machado, who scored thanks to a superb strike from the right (1-1, 39th), the Sang et Or seemed in difficulty in the face of the opposing ardor.

Cherki in the good shots
Because even by being joined before the break and losing their captain Lacazette, to injury (44th), the Gones will show great resources thanks to their young guard.
After a too crossed strike from Barcola (47th), it was Cherki, big man of the match, who will free his own by taking advantage of a good shift from Caqueret to shoot Samba at close range (2-1, 64th).
Fofana (71st, 75th) or Sotoca (77th) tried in vain to sound the revolt, nothing worked.
Lyon has two successes in Ligue 1 for the first time since last October, while Lens falls from the podium, overtaken by Monaco in 3rd place.
