After four defeats in a row in the league, Lyon was unable to rectify the situation against Toulouse at home this Friday, at the start of the 10th round of L1 (1-1).
In recent days, President Aulas has taken care to confirm Peter Bosz in his role as OL coach – while admitting that the performance of Les Gones did not live up to his expectations. In the text, the Rhone boss admitted that the economic deal necessarily weighed in his choice of stability. Will it be otherwise at the end of this new pitiful match for the Lyonnais?
Called to revolt in front of their public after four consecutive defeats in Ligue 1, the Lacazette and others are satisfied this Friday evening with a point against the TFC. Insufficient, necessarily, to feed the ambitions of a club supposed to play the leading roles in the championship. A fortiori in this year when OL must compose without Europe. Especially since Lyon had soon opened the scoring, by Tetê (1-0, 2e).
Totally amorphous in the second half, after having already come close to disaster on a Spierings shot pushed back by the crossbar before the break (43e), the locals finally cracked against an opportunist Ratao (1-1, 67e). Logical punishment of Rhone largesse of the moment. ” It’s a bit frustrating because there was a way to take the three points tonighteven whispered the Toulousain Chaïbi after the meeting on Prime Video. We missed a bit of accuracy in the last gesture, that’s all. »

Stunned at the final whistle, Tolisso admitted not having the keys to the renewal expected of his partners. ” After having chained four defeats, we wanted to bounce back; we talked and worked a lot, I assure you, and no one is happy with the result tonight… We are giving everything in training to raise the bar, we started this match well, maybe even too well since we let ourselves fall asleep… We have to do more. There are many things to improve, it is very insufficient, everyone must question themselves! »
There is indeed urgency for an OL which after 10 days only displays 14 units on the counter. Nine lengths from a place in C1 before the results of the weekend. The promoted Haut-Garonne is barely worse off with his 12 points.
