The Bad Gones and Lyon 1950 were in the game on Sunday, at OL's training center, to push the club's U19s to the Stade de France.
The young Lyonnais were thus treated to a great atmosphere, with more than 1,500 spectators in DĂ©cines, during their Gambardella Cup semi-final against Troyes.
They did it !

Led after 10 minutes of play, they managed to overthrow the match (3-1) to slip into the final of the premier event of the youth categories in France.
Eric HĂ©ly's players, notably supported by the promising Mohamed El Arouch (18), who turned professional last summer, will therefore play on May 7 at the opening of the Coupe de France final between OGC Nice and FC Nantes.
Opposed to Caen, they could offer OL their first Gambardella Cup for twenty-five years, when the spearheads were named Steed Malbranque and Jérémie Bréchet.
Even the 1987 generation of Karim Benzema, Hatem Ben Arfa or even LoĂŻc RĂ©my had failed twice in the final of the event (in 2005 and 2006).
