Lille's joy after Loïc Rémy's goal against Lyon - Michel Spingler / AP / SIPA

Unless we consider Ligue 1 as being in the national interest (between Amiens-Dijon here with your terrible procession of missed passes), we probably attended Sunday evening the last championship match in a stadium filled before several weeks. Decreed just before the meeting to fight against the coronavirus epidemic and applicable as of Monday, the ban on the gathering of more than 1,000 people in France therefore made this Lille-Lyon historic

But it is not the only thing that we will remember from this meeting of the 28th day. Because this March 8 could also become the day when Lyon, logically beaten in the North, definitively said goodbye to a qualification in the Champions League next season.

Lille no longer masked

Five wins in six games. If there is indeed a team in good shape at the moment in a sick country, it is Losc. Facing OL, the Northerners flew over the debates by creating the best opportunities. Second last year, Galtier's men, fourth with 49 points on the clock, can still dream of a second qualification in a row in the Champions League. The fight with Marseille (2nd, 56 points) and Rennes (3rd, 50 points) should animate the end of the season

Rémy washes his hands of it

Trained in Lyon, Loïc Rémy did not get upset with his former club on Sunday evening. Author of the victory goal by resuming a good center from Bamba (33rd), the Lille striker confirms his current good pass. With this seventh goal in Ligue 1, his 14th in all competitions, the 32-year-old player finds a second youth.

Lyon returns to quarantine

OL was believed to be on the road to recovery since its success against Juventus and in the derby against Saint-Etienne. But the Rhone club, already eliminated Wednesday in the French Cup by PSG (1-5), has relapsed in the North. To believe that the accumulation of matches ended up being right for Rudi Garcia's men. Almost no opportunity in a wobbly 3-5-2 for a very painful defeat. Now ten points behind the podium ten days before the start, OL have almost said goodbye to their dreams of qualifying for the Champions League next season. Unless you win it this year. The fever is mounting to our heads ...
