Lille and Lens Part Ways in a High-Stakes Northern Derby

2023-10-08 17:06:12

IT’S FINISH ! (1-1)

NO WINNER!

Lille and Lens part ways as good friends this Sunday evening. A point that does not suit either team. Machado is the scorer for the locals, it was Benjamin André who opened the scoring for the Mastiffs.

VERY CLOSE TO 2-1!

THE MATCH BALL!

It’s missed! Wahi serves Thomasson who tries his luck with a touch of the ball. In the right tempo, the one who had been the Lensois hero against Arsenal completely misses this shot.

In the wall…

Frankowski finds the wall. Lille can breathe.

Free kick to come for Lens

We are at the entrance to the penalty area. Full axis. Yoro is behind Wahi and the referee even shows the yellow card. A great opportunity to take the lead!

6 more minutes

And there will be 6 minutes of added time in this Northern Derby!

Double change for LOSC

Bentaleb and Yazici come into play. David and Gomes leave their place.

Corner for nothing

Samba jumps higher than everyone and gets the ball.

Corner for Lille

It is conceded by Machado after this low cross from David. Note that Adam Ounas has done a lot of damage since he came into play.

Corner pour Lens

But Wahi misses his half-volley at the far post on this cross from Thomasson.

Yellow for Angel Gomes

Logical, after this late intervention on Machado.

37,223 spectators

With the travel ban on Lille supporters, this Derby still brought in 37,223!

Place reste au sol

Ismaily hits Wahi in the air. The latter falls violently and the game is stopped.

Fulgini exit

Neil El Aynaoui takes his place for these last minutes.

Center d’Ounas

It’s safe for Samba who goes to bed peacefully.

Andrew’s head

Zhegrova finds the right area on this cross and André deflects the ball with his head. Goal kick.

BUT DE LENS ! (1-1)

GOAL IN THE NORTHERN DERBY!

First ball and goal for Machado! Thomasson crosses perfectly for the new entrant who hits a perfect header! Lens returns to the game and Bollaert finally makes some noise!

Machado comes into play

And it’s in Khusanov’s place!

Lille change

Ounas comes into play in place of Cavaleiro.

GUILAVOGUI VERY CLOSE TO SCORING!

AAAAARF !

It was hot for Lens! Guilavogui arrives at the penalty spot and tries his luck at the end of this counter-attack. Alexsandro lies down and slows the shot, easy for Chevalier to recover. What a Lensoise opportunity! And what a lack of lucidity!

Thomasson comes into play

Just like Wahi and Guilavogui. Sotoca, Diouf and Said go the opposite way.

Changes to come on the Lensois side

Things are moving on the RC Lens bench. There are several changes to expect in the next few minutes.

Rusk for Haise

The Lens coach contests the referee’s decision and receives a yellow card.

Tone up

For a few minutes, the temperature has been rising on the lawn. Big altercation between Sotoca and Alexsandro just now.

Less Lensoise pressure

Visitors have a little more time to construct their actions. And this is simply due to the absence of the Lensois pressing. Nothing to do with the first half at the moment.

Cabella cover

And it flies into the clouds! What a shame for Lille who had the opportunity to take the break. Great work from Zhegrova at the start of the action.

Here we go again ! (0-1)

No change at the break, we leave with the same players who finished the first half.

MI-TIME! (0-1)

IT’S THE BREAK !

André gave the Mastiffs the lead just before the break. We would have to be more lucid in the last 16 meters on the Lens side to equalize in the second half!

GOAL FOR LILLE! (0-1)

THE CAPTAIN SETS AN EXAMPLE!

Benjamin André comes with a perfect header on Zhegrova’s cross! It allows LOSC to take the advantage just before the break!

Cabella Strike

A crushed shot without danger for Samba. Still 0-0.

5 more minutes

There will be 5 minutes of additional time in this first act.

Super move by Yoro

It was very dangerous but it was perfectly done. Yoro dribbles three Lens players to restart his team on this quickly played free kick.

Foul by Benjamin André

Big sole from the LOSC captain on Frankowski. He is well behind but escapes the box.

Projectile on Cabella

The Lille player is hampered by projectiles when taking the corner. The referee stops the match for a few seconds before signaling Lille to strike. The corner does nothing.

HOT !

WHAT A CENTER!

Zhegrova manages to get past two RC Lens players before crossing. The cross is perfect but no Lille player deflects the ball into the Samba goals. Corner to follow. The referee considers that a Lensois touched the ball.

NO PENALTY!

The referee decides not to whistle a penalty! The LOSC defender did not voluntarily take off his arm. The decision seems good and logical.

PENALTY ?

VAR IN PROGRESS!

Alexsandro seems to deflect Sotoca’s strike with his arm. The entire RC Lens bench asks for a penalty and the referee will see the video!

Drop in pace

And here is a little observation phase which will be good for both teams. A little calm after the storm.

KNIGHT AGAIN!

SOTOCA 0 KNIGHT 1!

The RC Lens striker jumps higher than everyone and unleashes a hell of a helmet hit on this corner. The LOSC goalkeeper is attentive and clears the ball far in front of his fists!

Remote danger

Chevalier boxes Fulgini’s cross with both fists. Big start to the match from the Lille goalkeeper for the moment!

Jaune pour Cavaleiro

Sotoca is dried by the Portuguese striker and the referee logically takes out the toast.

Nearby…

Samba accompanies this shot which goes out of bounds. Too bad for LOSC who could have done better in this situation.

Yellow for Medina!

Medina is behind Zhegrova. Interesting free kick to come for Lille. We are 30 meters from the Samba goals, to the right of the penalty area.

XXL KNIGHT!

CRAZY PARADE!

Huge intervention from Chevalier on this header from Wesley Saïd at point blank range. The LOSC goalkeeper wards off the danger with a corner after the Lensois striker has crunched Yoro in the air.

The following corner achieves nothing.

Samba clears into touch

Good pressing from Lille and from Cavaleiro at the moment, who pushes the Lensois goalkeeper into touch.

Gomes gets up quickly

Angel Gomes is back on the pitch after this beautiful sole from Diouf. Lille will be able to get back on track.

Great work by the Knight

Initially poorly controlled, the Lille goalkeeper’s exit was then perfect. He really bothers Said who found himself alone in the penalty area.

The game resumes

David is back on the pitch and play resumes.

IT’S HOT !

TENSION MAXIMALE !

On the bench and on the pitch, the temperature rises a notch after this mistake. Spirits do not calm down. The tension is at its maximum!

David stays on the ground

Huge duel between Abdukodir Khusanov and David on the sidelines. The Lille striker’s head hit the boards. Logical error.

Center of Diouf

Cleared by the Lille defense and Cabella keeps the ball to restart his team. LOSC attack to come perhaps.

OCCASION POUR LENS !

FULGINI STRIKES!

And it passes a few centimeters from Chevalier’s left post. The Lens striker had closed his foot well at the entrance to the area. An attack that comes from a nice high recovery from Danso in midfield.

CONTACT !

Huge contact between Bafodé Diakité and Facundo Medina. Both players remain standing, the referee does not whistle crazy… Welcome to the Derby!
