00:00Of this matchday, yesterday, Lens had a victory, so they move three points ahead.
00:19It's Lyon who get us underway, looking for a fifth straight victory.
00:23This was the season when they thought that they would not only be challenging for Europe, but also maybe challenging for the title once again.
00:32It's taken them a little while to get going, but they are on the way.
00:35Kakare.
00:39Decent ball into the middle. Here's Rennes, Schurke. Schurke, little ball across.
00:43And here's Malik Fafana, first chance.
00:46And it's tight it is, because those six points have shot them up the table.
00:50Schurke.
00:52Another corner in. It's handed out by Dismas.
00:59And then misses out Veretout.
01:03Not quite sure that worked. They've given the ball away though.
01:05And here is Lacazette.
01:12Oh, and Maxence Kakare trying to catch Artur Demas out.
01:17But he had all of the parameters measured up.
01:23Malik Fafana has broken away from Loic Nagu.
01:27Belgium trying to size him up.
01:29Plenty in the middle. Back it comes.
01:33Well, it was a decent attempt from Alonso.
01:36Soliso inside again. He's found some space. Kakare this time, the beneficiary of it.
01:40Rennes, Schurke. Rennes, Schurke. Getting some space. Little backheel.
01:46And it still might go in. Kakare over the top.
01:49That's better though from the half. And the crowd rise.
01:52Hoping something can happen. Issa Soumare now down the left-hand side.
01:56And that's just once.
01:58Veretout, nice. Schurke again.
02:01He's beginning to go back to the sort of form we saw him when he first burst through.
02:04And showed such promise.
02:06Tolisso. Tolisso will strike.
02:08Very well judged header by Yoan Somi again.
02:13Still though. Back it comes. Schurke.
02:16Schurke. Lacazette gives them wind.
02:18And a lovely first time. Veretout with the shot.
02:21And more into the pass of Issa Soumare.
02:24Kazimir. Kazimir looking for the goal on his return to the side.
02:28And it gets a deflection.
02:31Maitland-Niles back into Schurke again.
02:35Really got lovely footwork.
02:37In it comes. Near post.
02:39Out by Pembélé. Volley back in again. And there's the first goal.
02:47Fantastic strike from the Brazilian Abner.
02:53Back from international duty with Brazil.
02:56And on target.
03:09Well, it was under the keeper.
03:11But Abner's first goal for Lyon in Ligue 1 McDonald's
03:14will be one he remembers.
03:16Beautiful strike.
03:18And it was through a forest of players.
03:21Maybe the goalkeeper late to see it.
03:24He lost his one draw and one victory
03:26in their first five matches of the campaign.
03:36Corner kick. In by Schurke once more.
03:39And the same routine.
03:41Out by a defender.
03:43Recycled by Maxenss Kakare.
03:45Schurke gets past one man, but illegally.
03:48Malek Vafana has got into some space down the left-hand side.
03:51Lyon looking for a second goal before half-time.
03:54Lacazette looking to turn, but Coach Eloi stops him.
03:57Ryan Schurke. Ryan Schurke going for either a cross.
04:05There you go.
04:09Can't get it past Abner.
04:11In again by the head.
04:13And brought down nicely by Maitland-Niles.
04:18Abner's throw to Tolisso.
04:21And that's five minutes gone.
04:23Half-time added on.
04:24Well, it's almost five minutes gone of time added on.
04:26The referee blows the whistle.
04:28Stay tuned. You're watching Beansports.
04:34Half-getters underway.
04:36Chasing a one-goal deficit.
04:40No, Coach Eloi does get there.
04:42Back inside once more.
04:44They can't figure it out.
04:45A pairing with the shot.
04:49And it's Schurke who takes it.
04:51We were looking at the slow-motion replay.
04:54Tagliati down the line.
04:56Lovely stuff.
04:57Here comes the half.
04:58Much better looking.
04:59Here is another decent delivery.
05:01And it comes to Nago!
05:04Well, that was on target.
05:06And only stopped being a goal
05:08as it flashed off a Lyon player over.
05:11Another good ball in.
05:12Punched away by Perry.
05:13But Nago really catches hold of this.
05:18Defeating Liga at McDonald's in the calendar year.
05:21More than any other current team in the top flight.
05:24Already at 14.
05:25Ball comes in and it's safely into the arms of Perry.
05:28He gets rid of it straight away.
05:30And into space comes Jordan Ferry.
05:32Jordan...
05:33Veritu, excuse me.
05:36Toure.
05:40Lovely ball.
05:43And not such a good ball in on the far side.
05:48Forward by Lois.
05:51Kakare manages to get there first though.
05:53It's nicely done.
05:54Calm. Cool. Collected.
05:56And a good ball also to Tolisso.
05:57And now Malik Farhana is through.
05:59Malik Farhana against the goalkeeper.
06:01Can he get there?
06:02Farhana to make it 2-0!
06:07Wonderful break.
06:09Started by...
06:19Still only 19 years old.
06:21But lovely composure.
06:23Lovely calm.
06:24But all started here by a good piece of steel.
06:27And then silk.
06:30From the Lyon number 6.
06:32Maxence Kakare.
06:36And most of the 22,500 fans in here not happy about that.
06:46But a little smattering away fans celebrating.
06:56Into the ball it comes.
06:57And a chance for the half!
07:00Backwards.
07:02Salmiyeh.
07:04Finds Aperi.
07:05He's in a bit of space.
07:07Aperi.
07:08Decent ball in.
07:09Off of Sabi's head.
07:11As he tried to glance it onwards.
07:15And it will be a throw in to Aperi to get this ball going.
07:18But he finally launches it here into the Normandy air.
07:21Loris gets there above Lacazette.
07:23Farhana though finds Tolisso.
07:25Tolisso through to Ryan Schurke.
07:27Ryan Schurke across!
07:29And finally it's a first goal this season
07:32for the captain Alexander Lacazette.
07:40He was involved in the build-up.
07:42Good play there first from Farhana.
07:45Then Tolisso.
07:46And finally Schurke.
07:48And on the far side.
07:49That's exactly where you would expect to find Alexander Lacazette
07:53following in late.
07:55In space.
07:56On the goal line.
07:57Thank you very much.
07:593-0 to Lyon.
08:00And Le Havre, dead and buried.
08:11It's going to be another away win for Lyon.
08:14All those games in prospect in the near future.
08:22Mkhitanza gets his first touches coming on.
08:24And goes for goal.
08:27Ayoub.
08:30Plenty of blue shirts forward.
08:33But not much direction as you can hear from the crowd.
08:36So Touré goes for a shot.
08:39Jordan Veratout forward.
08:42Neumar.
08:43Neumar going for goal.
08:44And it's parried away by Demar.
08:47Tolisso will pick it up.
08:50It's taken us a long time to get this free kick in operation.
08:54Finally the whistle goes.
08:56Ayoub.
08:57Warms up.
08:58And goes for goal.
08:59And it's just a few inches over the top.
09:04Need to keep the ball.
09:05Play it around.
09:06Frustrate the half.
09:08Kakare.
09:11Kakare into Neumar again.
09:13Gautier-Loris makes the tackle.
09:15But it comes to Benraba.
09:17Benraba tries to pass it in.
09:18And then Georgi Mkhitanza tries to blast it in.
09:23Perri.
09:24Another ball into the box.
09:25But too close to the goalkeeper.
09:26Perri.
09:27And he launches it long.
09:28Looking for Benraba.
09:32Mkhitanza.
09:33Benraba's through.
09:34It could be four.
09:35It is.
09:41The route completed.
09:44Smash and grab.
09:45A second counter-attack goal from the visitors.
09:48Great piece of play.
09:49Wonderful play to start with.
09:51Mkhitanza takes that ball down from Benraba.
09:53Links up with Mkhitanza.
09:56And then he had a practice shot earlier.
09:58This time he got it right.
10:00It was still a pass.
10:01But with more determination.
10:03And more accuracy.
10:05And in Lyon.
10:06Four of the best here in the Stade Océan.
10:09Where Lara Hava are drowning.
10:22Decide to stay focused until the end.
10:26And the end is now.
10:29And it has been a sensational performance away from home again for Lyon.
