Lyon encountered Nimes during the 10th match week of the regular Ligue 1 tournament as favorites and delivered convincing 2:0 victory. The opening goal was absolutely remarkable thanks to astonishing vision and skill by Lyon’s captain Marcelo. 31-year-old Brazilian defender launched a super-long ball through the entire pitch straight to the foot of fellow striker Moussa Dembele, who did well to take the lead. Remarkable assist, reminds a lot of 00’s Barcelona style.

  • Lyon elevated up to the 3rd spot of Ligue 1 with the win
  • In the previous season Lyon also finished 3rd
