WOLFSBURG-OL 0-0

Kick-off at 8 p.m. SAINT-SEBASTIEN

7 p.m .: The other evening reading is a souvenir paper dating from May 2016, when OL regained their European crown (after three years of scarcity)… against Wolfsburg. At the end of a breathtaking final in Reggio Emilia, Sarah Bouhaddi had allowed the Lyonnaises to stop the curse of shots on goal (1-1, 4-3 on tabs). Since then, with its emblematic goalkeeper, OL have totally reversed the trend in major events (avoid insults on this live in case of exception in four hours).

7 p.m .:  Hello everyone, we are in the starting blocks for this new big European meeting for OL. While waiting to meet you with the team compositions from 7:45 p.m., we leave you a little reading to make you wait. We are already telling you this famous “endless thirst for titles” evoked by Jean-Luc Vasseur, who could become the 4th coach tonight to put OL on the roof of Europe.

Good evening to all 20 minutes! Welcome to this Champions League shock between Wolfsburg and OL which smells of extra time, even shots on goal, and a high-level match well hooked as it should be. The stakes are colossal for the Lyonnaises, who dream of a seventh European Cup, and even a fifth in a row, in Real Madrid mode from another time (from 1956 to 1960 with Di Stefano, that speaks well to you , eh?). Used to manhandling PSG as was again the case on Wednesday in the semifinals (1-0), OL have almost the same psychological ascendancy over Wolfsburg, since their cruel defeat in the final against the German club in 2013 (0- 1). Judge for yourself: 2016 final (1-1, 4-3 on penalties, we were in Reggio Emilia), 2017 quarter-final (2-0, 0-1), 2018 final (4-1, all in extended, thank you Shanice van den Sanden) and quarter-final 2019 (2-1, 4-2), everything has always turned in the direction of the band at Wendie Renard. This time, the absence of four centerpieces for OL, defender Griedge Mbock and scorer Ada Hegerberg, long-injured, plus Amandine Henry (calf affected in quarterfinals) and Nikita Parris (sent off against PSG), could be very damaging. But in view of its exciting conquests over the past ten years, this Lyon winning machine does not lack resources. We can't wait to quickly share all of this with you on 20 Minutes .
