  • Lyon won (1-0) Wednesday night on the lawn of the Park, in the quarter-final first leg of the Champions League.

  • The Lyonnaises can consider themselves happy as they suffered, especially in the first period, against an aggressive and uninhibited PSG team.

  • The players and the coach are aware that it will be necessary to do much better on the return to avoid false fears.

At the Parc des Princes,

We won't teach you anything by telling you that it never smells very good for a team when, at the end of the night, the goaltender is the best rated.

However, on Wednesday evening, our friends from

L'Equipe

 put Sarah Bouhaddi 7 after Lyon's short victory against PSG.

Us, once is not custom, we will even add a small bonus point, like that, gift.

All that to say that, on Wednesday evening, the performance of the Lyonnaises was absolutely not up to the record and the aura that this war machine gives off wherever it goes.

“I had the impression that we did not approach the first half as we wanted, very timidly let go of Jean-Luc Vasseur after the match.

The meetings against PSG have always been very close.

"Relaunched by a colleague, the Lyon coach then preferred the word" difficulty "to that, it is true much heavier," bankruptcy ".

"Sarah [Bouhaddi] was very good in the first half, but we also saw a good defense" he analyzed before recovering, rightly, let's be honest: "Finally ... there was some in the less always one to catch up with the other ”.

Vasseur is waiting for better on his return

If OL recovered a little in the second half - and yet, there are no real opportunities, however, penalized aside - Amandine Henry, she found that her team had not stolen its victory at the Parc .

“There were two teams tonight.

At half-time we weren't satisfied but then we clicked and it showed.

The result is deserved in view of the second half, but we will also have to work to avoid reproducing our mistakes from the first.

"Wendie Renard explained that the players were" the first frustrated "after the first period catalyzed by OL.

We will obviously have to do better in the second leg, even if Wendie Renard's penalty, snatched from Formiga's hand at the very end of the game, still gives them a little psychological advantage.

But Jean-Luc Vasseur wants to be careful.

"We turn in the lead, that's all," he calms down at the end of the match.

The 1-0, enough to see each other in the half?

“No,” he concludes.

We will have to redo a big game next week, we will have to have better control over the game and be sharper offensively.
