Hello everyone, we are going to bring you a big European evening from Parc OL. After snatching the equalizer in the last moments of the first leg in Vigo (1-1) thanks to Endrick (and also to Celta goalkeeper Ionut Radu), Olympique Lyonnais is rather on a favorable waiver for this round of 16 second leg of the Europa League, this Thursday (6:45 p.m.).
So yes, except that there hasn’t been the slightest victory since February 15 for Paulo Fonseca’s gang, with three defeats then three draws over the (dark) streak. Injuries galore on the offensive level (Nuamah and Himbert remain outeven if Sulc, Moreira and Fofana are back in the group this Thursday) notably broke the good dynamic of January. In this difficult context, it will not be easy to overcome the current 6th in Liga.
But Lyon supporters, who will only be around 40,000 against Celta, still dream of a European epic. Especially since OL’s part of the table in C3 is really affordable, between a potential quarter-final against Genk or Fribourg, then a half against Betis Sevilla, Panathinaikos or Braga. It can quickly feel like the return of #YaCherMoy, right?
>> Join us from 6 p.m. at the stadium for this promising OL-Celta Vigo, before kick-off at 6:45 p.m.
