Strasbourg vs. Lyon: A Battle for Dominance in Ligue 1

2023-08-13 19:38:13

The second period begins!

Jérôme Brisard kicks off the second period of this meeting which is still not unlocked despite the Lyon domination.

It’s the break at La Meinau! No goal.

This is the end of this first period mainly dominated by the men of Laurent Blanc. The post saved Matz Sels while Rémy Riou didn’t have much work to do.

Distribution of boxes

Corentin Tolisso and Jean-Ricner Bellegarde take a yellow card. The Lyon midfielder is sanctioned after asking for a card while the Strasbourg player is warned for a fault of frustration.

Sylla’s strike is too lively

The Strasbourg defender takes advantage of an axial recovery to control and follow up with a shot but like the 4 other Alsatian attempts in this match it is not on target.

Lacazette was offside

Tolisso slips a ball behind the Strasbourg defense towards Lacazette who completely misses his recovery. He surely knew he was in an offside position.

Delaine rate son centre

This first period is not very conclusive for Strasbourg which misses a lot like this failed center from the Strasbourg side.

5 additional minutes

The additional time for this first act is a minimum of five minutes.

Les Gones grow

This end of the first period is totally in favor of OL who dominate copiously. Racing is still holding out but half-time could do them good.

Excellent defense from Nyamsi

Cherki provokes the Strasbourg defender in the Alsatian area but Gerzino Nyamsi is irreproachable and pushes back for a corner.

The post saves Strasbourg!

What a Lyon movement! Cherki slips the ball to Caqueret with a small heel before the latter finds Lacazette but the French striker lacks success and finds the post. Salts divert it.

Caqueret is a song

After a head to head clash between Nyamsi and Caqueret, the latter remains on the ground with the brow bone in blood. The medical staff intervenes.

Caleta-Car releases

Emegha crosses but Deminguet is too short and the former OM defender can clear. The assistant’s flag raises to signal an offside position.

Cherki’s great attempt

The Lyon winger enters the box and ends up hitting at the near post but Sels is on the trajectory and pushes back.

Lacazette gets up with difficulty

After a duel with Prcic, the French international is struggling to get up. It seems like a hit. The captain will be able to resume his place.

Tolisso strike does not deceive Sels

The former Bavarian approaches the surface, arms and strikes. It’s on target but Sels is not fooled.

Emegha forgets Bellegarde

The Strasbourg midfielder is mad with rage after the individual action of his teammate. Emegha had a 2-on-1 situation but opted to strike. The Lyon defense can come back and counter.

Kumbedi comes into play

The young Sael Kumbedi comes into play to replace the unfortunate Clinton Mata.

Hard blow for OL

Laurent Blanc will have to make a change since Clinton Mata is injured after trying to counter the center of Bellegarde.

Emegha does not take care of the ball

The Strasbourg striker was ahead but chose to cut Tagliafico’s run. The referee whistles a fault more than logical.

Lepenant attempted a breakthrough

Nice initiative from the young Lyon midfielder who ends up pushing his ball too much. Matz Sels can grab the ball.

Barcola seemed to have been hit

After several slowdowns, it seems that Bradley Barcola should have benefited from a penalty because Bellegarde touches him. The VAR ruled that there was no manifest error.

Barcola asks for the penalty

What a gesture from Barcola who enters the surface with the help of a feint of strike and falls into the zone of truth. It doesn’t seem to be unbalanced.

Lacazette was offside

Corentin Tolisso sends a superb cross towards Lacazette who misses his header. Anyway, the OL center-forward was in an illegal position.

The wall pushes back

Alexandre Lacazette takes care of the free kick obtained by Tolisso but the Strasbourg wall protects well and repels the danger.

The cardboard falls

After a long minute of reflection and after noting the condition of Corentin Tolisso’s ankle, the referee of the match warned the Alsatian defender.

Doukouré commits a gross fault

Corentin Tolisso is caught up in Doukouré’s dangerous gesture. The referee signals a fault about twenty meters from the cages of Sels.

Liénard expresses his love for Racing on RMC

Dimitri Liénard, the former Strasbourg midfielder, now in Bastia (Ligue 2), expresses his love for Racing on RMC. “It’s going to be weird to be in front of the TV and support my teammates by no longer being from Strasbourg, but I see that the passion is still there. It’s magnificent”.

“We cannot say that the page has been turned. I have experienced extraordinary emotions with this club and I have very close friends in Strasbourg, in the team. I will be the first supporter of Racing. I will support with this new era and this new team will debut. I wish them to continue to grow.

Emegha’s number

The Strasbourg center-forward provokes Diomandé after winning his physical duel before striking but Caleta-Car replaces his teammate.

The beginning of this meeting is marked by inaccuracies on both sides.
