00:00But they have struggled to maintain consistency, failing to secure a win in their subsequent four-leg matches.
00:08But let's listen to the stadium.
00:11What a great atmosphere that we are living here in...
00:32Four-league games without a win for Lyon.
00:36Nine without victory for Stade de Reims.
00:39Times are tough for both of these two prestigious French clubs who battle it out.
00:44Hasn't met expectations as far as Jon Textor, the owner, is concerned.
00:52Douama back to Tessman, shot on perhaps for Taner Tessman.
00:55Decent effort but straight into the arms of Yevhen Diouf.
01:01Matic for Tolisso.
01:04Possibilities here, Tolisso's pass.
01:07Douama on his right foot, Ernest Douama.
01:11Let's fly, Schurke wanted a pass.
01:14He wasn't too far wide.
01:17Good counter-attack from the home side.
01:25Goals have been hard to come by this season for Ernest Douama, just one.
01:32Lyon win it back.
01:35Tagliafico to Douama.
01:39Schurke.
01:42Ryan Schurke.
01:45Tolisso.
01:47Good cross from Tolisso.
01:49There is the opener.
01:53Nicolas Tagliafico making a really good run from left back.
01:58Adding numbers in the box.
02:01The quality of the cross from Corentin Tolisso, absolutely exquisite.
02:13Tagliafico, who loves to chip in with important goals.
02:19He's got another significant one here today.
02:26It gives Lyon the lead against Raus.
02:29No offside, it's just beautifully curled in behind those Raus defenders.
02:35Lyon won, Raus nil.
02:43Tolisso.
02:44Douama shot on, no.
02:45Comes back.
02:47Tannertestmann, he'll have a go.
02:49Good strike from the American, good save by Yevhen Dziuf.
02:54It's the second time we've seen Tannertestmann let fly from long range.
02:57That was more dangerous.
03:05It does give you an additional threat, doesn't it?
03:09If you have a midfielder who's capable of shooting from range.
03:20Attenganer.
03:22Attenganer moving through the gears and moving up the pitch.
03:26Lyon on the back foot.
03:30Just a little bit short that pass from Valentin Attenganer.
03:33And that is the last piece of action in the first half.
03:44So Stade de Rennes need to react.
03:46They trail by a goal to nil here.
03:51Here's Akiye, mate.
03:55Diacon.
03:56Oh, Raus going to come out with a different mentality in this second half.
04:00Diacon with a really good shot.
04:07It's a really good stop from the Brazilian custodian.
04:10This is curling inside that far post.
04:17Mamadou Diacon starting a lead-going game.
04:22Now possibilities.
04:24Tolisso.
04:25Tolisso's cross just too far in front of Cherki.
04:27But it fell nicely to SaĂŻl Koumbedi.
04:30And Yevang…
04:33Lovely pass from Matic to Tolisso.
04:37Koumbedi the right back arriving.
04:41For Mikotadze's acrobatics.
04:52Flicked on by Ernest Nuama.
04:55This is Tolisso.
04:57Stays on his feet.
05:02Good ball from Cherki.
05:03Nuama whips it towards that near post and it's gone behind.
05:08So a free kick that Cherki is standing over.
05:13Doesn't have a great angle to cross from.
05:18Clips it.
05:19He clips it.
05:20Very nicely.
05:22And Corentin Tolisso nods beyond Yevangir.
05:26Lyon double their advantage.
05:29And Paulo Fonseca is edging closer towards a first victory as Lyon coach.
05:39A goal made in Lyon.
05:44Cherki with the cross.
05:45Tolisso with the head up.
05:49Arouse.
05:51Caught cold.
05:53And they now have a mountain to climb.
06:00Tolisso is enjoying an outstanding…
06:03…reached the last four of a competition they've won twice in their history.
06:08Here's Malik Fofana.
06:12Or a clever dummy from Almada.
06:14This is Cherki.
06:17Ryan Cherki rifles home.
06:20And Lyon are starting to turn on the style.
06:28A lovely goal with the substitutes involved.
06:32Fofana and Almada.
06:34And Ryan Cherki after assisting Tolisso with the second goal.
06:40Gets in on the act himself.
06:43That is now six goals and ten assists in all competitions for the 21-year-old.
06:49Lyon 3, Reims 0.
06:58And he finished with aplomb, didn't he?
07:00Absolutely rifling the ball high into the net.
07:03Lyon no longer have the…
07:07…Coupe de France to play for.
07:09But they will be in the Europa League.
07:11We have a red card here.
07:14Toilettexier.
07:17Within the squad, of course, Lacazette…
07:20…will be pushing to return…
07:23…to the centre-forward position.
07:26And he's got it.
07:28Will be pushing to return…
07:31…to the centre-forward position.
07:34Fofana competing with…
07:36…Ernest Nuama for a first-team place.
07:39Tessman and Veritu fighting for…
07:42…football in the midfield.
07:44There's Veritu winning possession.
07:47Douillet-Tillet-Assa, the experienced centre-half…
07:49…only on the bench at the moment as well.
07:54Possibilities now for Lyon.
07:55Can they get a fourth?
07:56Scherke crosses.
07:58Lyon have got a fourth.
08:00And Mikko Tadzek is in…
08:02…among the goals once again.
08:05The Georgian with his fifth of the season.
08:11It's his first in six matches…
08:14…and he is absolutely delighted.
08:20And what a start for Paulo Fonseca here…
08:22…at the Groupama Stadium.
08:23His first home game…
08:25…and his side heading for a handsome…
08:28…4-0 victory over Raus.
08:30Ryan Scherke…
08:32…with his second assist…
08:34…to go with the goal he's contributed today.
08:38It's a great cross.
08:39The goalkeeper did get a hand to it…
08:41…but couldn't deflect the ball away far enough.
08:44And Mikko Tadzek…
08:46…arrived at the perfect time.
08:53Start winning games…
08:55…in this sort of fashion under Paulo Fonseca…
08:57…then the future could well be very bright.
09:01It's a case of a job well done this afternoon for…
