The highlights of the meeting
?? 11 ‘- Paqueta out of balance! Well served in the axis, with the Angevin defense lobbed, Paqueta tries a pivot strike. Unbalanced, it cannot fit. The referee allows the action to unfold before whistling for offside.
?? 17 ‘- The stop of Anthony Lopes! First big alert on the goal of Anthony Lopes, with a nice tumble on the right side of Bamba, who manages to center in six meters. It is cut at the near post by Bahoken, who stumbles on the Portuguese doorman, who had well sprung.
? 22 ‘- MEMPHIS DEPAY FINDS THE OPENING !!! On a corner, Paqueta takes over and hits the post. After a mess, Capelle returns to Depay, who can adjust Bernardoni and open the scoring for the Gones.

?? 28 ‘- THE OPPOSED HAND OF LOPES! What a Lopes tap on this coiled strike from Fulgini! On the left side at the corner of the surface, the Angevin midfielder releases a beautiful shot rolled up towards the opposite window but the Portuguese porter makes a superb save.
? 41’ – PAQUETA DOUBLE LA MISE !!! The Brazilian comes to score after a good job from Toko Ekambi in the box, on the left side. The former Angevin center. It is hijacked by Pavlovic and it comes back to the feet of Paqueta, alone at the far post, who can resume and score.
?? 50 ‘- What a stop for Bernardoni! Well served by Slimani, Depay rolls his shot but Bernardoni relaxes well and deflects for a corner. It doesn’t work.
?? 55 ‘- OH TOKO CAMP! The Cameroonian resumes at the far post but he is trapped by the rebound and cannot resume properly. It passes in front of Bernardoni, and no Lyonnais can push the ball into the goal. What an opportunity!
?? 64 ‘- WHAT OPPORTUNITY FOR CHO! Oh but what an opportunity for the young Angevin player! On a superb cross from Bamba from the right, Cho can resume in the half-volley but it misses. The opportunity was great.
? 83 ‘- WHAT A GOAL FOR MEMPHIS DEPAY !!! In two touches of the ball, Thiago Mendes finds Paqueta who throws Memphis Depay in depth. The Dutchman comes to score with a superb stung ball which leaves no chance for Bernardoni.
