00:00a lot, a lot, a lot in play for this encounter that we have today and this is
00:09the moment that 22 players are getting into the field
00:12Gorin Tantoliso 31, Nemanja Matic 6, Kakere 98, Maitley Niles 15, Nanasi
00:22number 6, Lemarichelle
00:30Kick off at Lyon, a crucial home game on matchday three of Ligue 1
00:39at times he was at the East France club, that's not too far away from Strasbourg
00:46including a remarkable season in Ligue 2 where they came back up again
00:51had a good season last season with them as well and they're on the attack
00:55Bakua, decent ball into the middle looking for Omega
00:59oh what a real chance, surely the first goal and there it is
01:03Nanasi taking two minutes to put Strasbourg in front
01:15that is exactly what Lyon were not looking for
01:18incredible, incredible
01:31nobody picked him up, back with a good ball in, completely missed on this near
01:36side as well
01:41and the Nanasi scores in just his second appearance
01:47Abner will take this set piece, he took the corner from the other side before
01:53drops it in again, that's too close the goalkeeper this time though
02:01Brazilian collects again, Kakere, still an age group international for France
02:07he's going to come out there onto
02:11one far side but
02:15Strasbourg holding strong at the moment, Kakere
02:21a little backheel by Tolisso, Kakere almost through again
02:26here comes Lacazette
02:30so
02:42into the box again, much better from Lyon
02:50Badouet
02:53Tolisso, sprinting out wide to Sila
02:58wide to Koure, and there's a chance here again
03:02not very well hit by Omega
03:06looking for goals in back-to-back games after scoring against Rennes last
03:09weekend, but his left foot just didn't really
03:12connect and it was a simple save in the end for Perri
03:16so
03:26pretty kick given, Bakua caught out this time
03:33and they went under, played at Gangon as well for a couple of seasons
03:38who are out of the top flight at the moment but
03:42a power side that have graced Liga in the past
03:50Santos scored last week and he might have set up a goal here
03:55another chance for Omega and another save from Perri
04:03back goes Douet, they're being closed down by Lacazette
04:10oh and here comes Mkhitaryan, great save
04:16Kakere is on the edge of the box
04:20Abner is going to send it into the six-yard box though and it's off the bar
04:24and still won't go in, Mata and it's wide and it's another corner
04:30miracle defending from Strasbourg what a save that is onto the bar from Johnson
04:39reaction keeping at his absolute sharpest
04:45beautifully done
04:50Maitland-Niles though wasn't fooled by that little piece of trickery
04:53Kakere can't get it, Maitland-Niles has left it behind but Tolisso will pick it
04:56up and feed it back to Chalet-Tassar
05:01is there a goal inside the last two minutes here for Lyon can they get
05:04something for all the hard work that they've
05:06put in in this opening period
05:10Mkhitaryan he's had a very industrious first half
05:16Kakere has been a little bit hit and miss
05:21Matic, that's better Mkhitaryan is in now can he turn back in
05:26Mkhitaryan looking for his first goal
05:31well he thought about until halftime
05:38coming up to five halves of football at the beginning of this new season of Liga
05:42McDonald's with no goal for Lyon it is looking horribly like it
05:47did last season
05:51Matic run by Lacazette oh beautiful first touch gets the
05:57great ball in oh it's another fabulous save
06:02Santos it's lovely play oh no it's not lovely play
06:07didn't go to the man I thought it was going to go to now all of a sudden
06:10Lacazette has a chance here Lacazette oh off the post surely now
06:16and it finally goes in
06:20Corentin Tolisso is the first scorer of a Lyon goal
06:28as we head into time added on they've had all the play they've had some
06:33fantastic chances to score it looked like it wouldn't go in again
06:37Lacazette hit the post but Corentin Tolisso showed the calm of
06:42mind and the delivery of shots albeit with a
06:47deflection and Lyon go into halftime level at 1-1
06:52we're coming up to the last few seconds of the five minutes added on at the end
06:55of the break as Maitland-Niles comes forward
06:58Mkhitaryan Kakare one last chance for Tolisso again and it's into the arms of
07:03Johnson who's going to deliver at the end of
07:06what has been a magnificent half
07:11so there's no attempt for more
07:17so then Strasbourg kick off and they held the lead
07:27that's why going in front was such a good thing for them
07:30now they need to do it again ball comes in boostering out it's
07:34pinging around all over the place Strasbourg trying to turn towards goal
07:39Seeler lovely balls recycles it back out into the path of Bakua
07:44that's another dangerous ball in and they've done it again
07:50almost identically in the second half they are back in front
07:58Andres Santos the Brazilian the goal scorer
08:04and all of that positivity going around the stadium has just disappeared out of
08:09the roof if you're a Lyon fan that is
08:15so
08:20well Andres Santos who was suspended for the first
08:24and the roller coaster carries on and they come forward again here
08:29comes Kakare chance straight away is Lacazette goes
08:33down
08:35didn't look very convincing from up here looks like he actually
08:39initiated the contact himself Strasbourg aren't waiting though they're
08:43off down the other side again looking to
08:45make it three dangerous ball in saved by Perry
08:51and it's picked up by Mata
09:02top of the table at the moment on the opening day of match day three
09:08Wren
09:11oh that's a good ball and Lyon are in trouble again
09:15Omega scores and it's 3-1 and Lyon are falling apart
09:28and the man who had a series of chances in the first half to score
09:33finally puts it away with one in the second
09:40so
09:47well like Santos who scored last week and has again scored this week
09:51now the center forward has done the same thing
09:55a simple goal but Lyon caught in possession
10:04and Abner is off replaced by Gift-Orban
10:11Koure hurts himself getting the ball back for
10:17Strasbourg
10:28Kakare Matic makes himself available
10:34again again Lyon go back to plotting a way
10:45forward he gets pushed down does he gets back up again though
10:47Lacazette still going Lacazette looking for the shot
10:50oh and it's off the bar and it's in and it's 3-2
10:58and it's Gift-Orban who's only just come on the pitch
11:05well for the second time Lacazette hits the bar
11:09or the post and it's followed up
11:13and it's Maitland-Niles excuse me who gets it Gift-Orban took the ball out but
11:17it's the Englishman who gave away the play that let
11:22Strasbourg go 3-1 in both sides that have led to goals
11:26players being caught in possession and then being punished
11:29and here comes Moise Dion great inside from the substitute and
11:35now Lacazette Lacazette looking up and it's 3-3
11:43but the offside flag has gone up against Gift-Orban
11:47and the Nigerian will not be able to celebrate
11:57the new signing from Ghent that saw Maitland-Niles equalize
12:05and it's a goal and it is 3-3
12:15Fafana
12:19crowds love it when he's on the ball he turns back inside again as well
12:22Malik Fafana twisting and turning they're going nuts behind the goal
12:27looking into the middle it down and here they come once was his side is so
12:31striding forward out of defense for Strasbourg great ball through
12:34as well great piece of play there by Clinton Mata
12:39taking it off the heels there or even the toes of
12:42Sekou Mara
12:45and now it's like a cup match here comes Leon
12:48Kakare spreads it out wide Fafana picks it up again they are streaming forward
12:52in white and red little ball over the top oh and they're in front
12:59the comeback complete a second goal for Orban
13:04and Leon who were 3-1 down are now 4-3 in front
13:12this is more like the Leon we saw when Piesage took over last season
13:19when he pulled them back from the brink of relegation
13:22into European football by the ends of it
13:28what a night for the home side as they look for their first win of the campaign
13:34against Fafana
13:37Sela lobs it forward out of the Strasbourg defense please come back the
13:41way it came Kakare a little too clever
13:47Strasbourg desperately trying to come back into it
13:54nice overlap picked up by Sunaya
14:00and again it's going to come through to another Leon to another player
14:03and the shot Kerry wants everybody forward
14:08he's going to hit this long
14:12referee blows
14:15and it's over what a match
