A first success after seven consecutive games without a win. Lyon, plunged into a crisis in recent weeks, breathes better after his performance to win in Leipzig (2-0) in the Champions League on Wednesday night. Memphis Depay (11th) and Martin Terrier (65th) scored the two goals of the match, which allowed Lyon to take first place in the group with 4 points, tied with Zenit Saint Petersburg, winner of Benfica.
"I saw 14 outstanding players on the pitch." "This match is an inflection point for us, it's a reference game, I'm very proud of my players, very happy for them, they showed a nice reaction, they showed they had nerves. is a deserved victory against a very strong team, physically, technically, tactically, with an excellent coach.I made a defense to three, but a system that gives the victory, it does not exist. We have won the matches in the last three games, we have let slip a result in the very last minutes, these are things that make you lose confidence, and it causes very difficult situations within the team. Depay is not the only symbol of this victory - I did not see a player tonight, I saw 14 outstanding players on the pitch, and four players on the bench who did not played but who celebrated the goals as much as the others ", ad clared Sylvinho, Lyon coach.
