Strasbourg Vs Lyon — Strasbourg fait plier Lyon 3-1 et stoppe la série de l'OL
Strasbourg defeated Lyon 3-1 in a Ligue 1 game at the Meinau, a result that halted Lyon's run of 13 consecutive victories in all competitions. The win lifts Strasbourg to seventh place, three points shy of the European places, while Lyon now faces a reset in Marseille.
Strasbourg midfield control and the scoreline that mattered
Portés par un milieu de terrain dominateur, les Alsaciens produced a full performance to secure a 3-1 triumph over OL. That victory ended Lyon's streak of 13 wins in a row across all competitions and moved Strasbourg up to seventh in the table, leaving them three points from the European spots. The result leaves Olympique Lyonnais with a trip to Marseille as the next challenge.
Strasbourg Vs Lyon: Panichelli's penalty and his reaction
Joaquin Panichelli converted a penalty with his right foot, striking "dans le soupirail, " as Greif dived to his left but was beaten. The goal contributed to the final 3-1 score and pushed Panichelli to a total of 13 goals in Ligue 1 this season. After the match, Joaquin Panichelli said, "Je fais de mon mieux, " as he reflected on Strasbourg's victory.
Diego Moreira's assist, his halftime assessment and exit
Martial Godo scored for Strasbourg after a deft, slightly chipped left-foot pass from Diego Moreira over Lyon's defense. Moreira, who had a contrasting loan spell at Lyon in the past, said at half-time that Strasbourg should have been three goals up given their chances: "On doit en mettre trois, on devrait être à 3-0, " adding that the team had dominated the match and managed Lyon's periods of possession but felt some regret that the scoreline "could have been wider and more open. " Moreira later left the pitch under ovations and was replaced by Amo-Ameyaw.
Late substitutions, stoppages and medical interventions
The game featured multiple changes: Enciso was replaced by Ouattara as the first switch for Racing; Omobamidele was replaced by Anselmino; Kluivert was replaced by Tagliafico. Diego Moreira was substituted and Amo-Ameyaw came on; in the final seconds Amo-Ameyaw himself was replaced by Yassine. Amo-Ameyaw earned a right-side free kick intended to help waste time, and at one point he went down and had to be helped up slowly by the medical staff before play resumed.
Incidents, clearances and the atmosphere at the Meinau
Late in the match rain fell over the Meinau as the crowd watched the closing minutes. Lyon's Mata received treatment from Lyon's medical staff after a contact with Chilwell. Doukouré cleared one of the last Lyon balls that had been hanging in front of Strasbourg's penalty area. The Gones often monopolised possession but frequently appeared somewhat resigned, and the public at the Meinau—who had seemed to hold their breath after Tolisso's goal for Lyon—found renewed serenity after Strasbourg's third goal and were able to savour the final minutes of the game.
