- Manchester City is definitely doing very well at OL. Winners (1-2) two months ago at Etihad Stadium, Lyon have delivered a new performance of choice this Tuesday (2-2).
- Deprived of a success that would not have been stolen, on a late equalizer of Sergio Agüero (2-2, 83rd), OL will have to go for his qualification for the 8th finals in two weeks in Ukraine.
- At the same time, Shakhtar Donetsk managed to win in extremis in Hoffenheim (2-3), pushing OL to get at least one draw on their lawn to continue its road in the Champions League.
Impressive from start to finish, the Lyonnais have deserved to offer OL Park the biggest achievement of the Champions League in its young history, this Tuesday against Manchester City. But the cruel equalizer of Sergio Aguero (2-2, 83) will force them to bring back a draw from Ukraine on the last day to see the
Champions League in 2019.
An OL as bluffing as the first leg. In September at the Etihad Stadium, it was already necessary to pinch to realize how much OL had delivered a match of anthology (1-2). But then put that two months later, against an opponent warned and slaying the entire Premier League (17 wins in 21 games in all competitions this season), it is breathtaking.

After two minutes away from the ball (as feared), the Lyonnais showed a monster base, like the festival of dribbles managed by Houssem Aouar, Ferland Mendy or Tanguy Ndombele. Holding the ball 43% of the time against the formation of Pep Guardiola is already a small feat. Add to that as many shots as the English offensive armada (9 against 9) and you'll get an idea of the OL's top performance.
Has anyone ever found a fault in Houssem Aouar as a footballer?
If so, let him denounce himself immediately.

Three occasions in mbadive gold spoiled. The mysteries were not lacking this Tuesday in Décines, especially if we have fun to compare the difference abyssal between a first period masterclbad and the derby porridge four days ago. But then, how to get to the break on the score of 0-0? Lyon side, Memphis Depay (13th) and Maxwel Cornet (29th) missed the inevitables that are expensive in the race for the 8th finals.

Also author of a volley on the cross of Ederson (43), the old Messin bought after the rest. With a coiled shot reminiscent of the one registered in Valencia three years earlier, the first surprise striker of the first was capsized OL Park (1-0, 55th). Then a duel well negotiated in front of Ederson, he gave the advantage to Lyon (2-1, 81st). Not bad for a usual fifth pick in attack having experienced only two starts of the season for the summits against the Cityzens, right?
So we agree that those who screamed to shout "Cornet" never whistled Maxwel when he entered without having played for weeks?

Deliverance at the end of a madness finale. As in the first leg, OL obviously had to face an awakening of the champion of England. Carried by a very agitated Sergio Agüero, City has gradually taken control of the game after the hour of play.
Anthony Lopes was first impeccable in front of the Argentinean (58th), he had to bow on two shots of Aymeric Laporte (1-1, 64th) then Sergio Agüero (2-2, 83rd), following set pieces of kicks.

The dream night was even doubly showered in the money time, since Shakhtar Donetsk won during play time in Hoffenheim (2-3). Assured to be at least paid in the Europa League, OL will need to ensure a draw in two weeks in Ukraine to see the 8th finals of the Champions League. More than angry …
