Could Lille be the new target for the Spaniards to take down? The day after LOSC’s victory against Atlético de Madrid on the pitch at the Estadio Metropolitano, it would very well be possible.
And not only because of this famous penalty which caused so much reaction in the press and on social networks. In the Champions League, LOSC can now boast of having beaten both Madrid teams. After the historic victory against Real Madrid at the Pierre-Mauroy stadium (1–0), Bruno Genesio’s men took the scalp of Atlético this Wednesday evening (1-3).
Two streaks of invincibility broken
Beyond the historic victories, Lille are above all putting an end to two series of invincibility. Before falling in the North, Real Madrid remained on a series of 36 games without defeat in all competitions. Victorious in La Liga and the Champions League last season, he had not lost since a Copa del Rey match against Atlético on January 18 (2-4, ap).
And since breaking the series of the most successful club in the competition did not seem to be enough for these hungry Lille, they also put an end to Atlético’s hegemony at home in the European Cup. In the Champions League, the club had not lost on home soil since November 24, 2021, hung 0-1 by AC Milan, with seven wins and four draws. Two statistics which may not please the French Federation of Lose.
To top it off, LOSC became the first French club to beat the two Madrid clubs in the European Cup in the same season. Not bad, right? It’s northern.

How do you think the controversial penalty decision will impact Atlético Madrid’s performance in their upcoming games?
**Interview with Football Analyst, Alex Martinez on LOSC’s Recent Victories**
**Interviewer:** Good morning, Alex! Recently, Lille OSC achieved a remarkable victory against Atlético Madrid, ensuring another win against Real Madrid earlier. What do you think this means for the club moving forward in the Champions League?
**Alex Martinez:** Good morning! It’s a significant boost for Lille. Winning against two of the biggest clubs in European football not only lifts their confidence but also marks them as serious contenders in this year’s Champions League. These victories indicate their tactical strength and resilience.
**Interviewer:** The match against Atlético was particularly intense. There was a lot of discussion about a controversial penalty decision. How do you think such incidents affect the morale of the teams involved?
**Alex Martinez:** Penalty decisions can be polarizing. For Lille, converting that penalty might have galvanized them, increasing their determination to win. Conversely, Atlético might be feeling frustrated, which could impact their future performances if they don’t channel that energy positively.
**Interviewer:** Lille has now ended impressive streaks of invincibility for both Real Madrid and Atlético. How likely is it that they could face a similar scenario against other top Spanish teams in future matches?
**Alex Martinez:** It’s definitely possible. Lille has shown that they can compete against top-tier teams. Their recent form suggests that they thrive under pressure, which could make them a formidable opponent for any club. If they maintain this momentum, other Spanish teams should be on alert.
**Interviewer:** what should we expect from Lille in the coming matches? Do you think they can maintain this level of performance?
**Alex Martinez:** If they can avoid complacency and continue to refine their tactics, I expect Lille to not only compete but potentially advance deep into the tournament. Their squad appears to be well-balanced, and with the right mindset, they could cause further upsets.
**Interviewer:** Thank you, Alex, for your insights on Lille’s performance and what it could mean for their future in the Champions League.
**Alex Martinez:** Thank you for having me!
