Romane Rafalski during OL Lyonnes – Dijon (Facebook OL Ang’elles)
While Jonatan Giraldez’s players lost to Arsenal, OL Lyonnes’ youth teams won. The two teams are more than ever in the running to win a title at the end of the season.
Last Wednesday, she experienced her first start in the first team against Dijon. Four days later, Romane Rafałski was not at the Emirates Stadium for Arsenal – OL Lyonnes (2-1), but in Meyzieu for a derby against ASSE with the U19s of OL Lyonnes. Another atmosphere but a match at stake despite everything for Rachel’s players Saidi. Coming back on the heels of PSG, the young Fenottes were left with a frustrating elimination in the semi-final of the U18 Cup and were keen to rediscover the taste of victory.
What better way to do it than a derby? It was not a clear and flawless success, but Yasmine’s only goal Bensheba in the 71st minute was enough for Lyon’s happiness. The mano a mano continues between OL Lyonnes and PSG with one last day to play before the final duel expected at Meyzieu on May 31.
The reserve has a new dolphin
At the same time as the U19s won the derby, the women’s reserves had a much easier victory against Monaco on one of the Academy grounds. Julien’s players Perney and Anthony Scaramozzino enforced the hierarchy with a 5-1 success against the Rocher club. A victory which took shape above all in the second act after Océane’s opening score Moreau Tranchant just before the break (45th). A double from Lorna Chicha Douvier (66th, 89th) as well as goals from Soleina Chennouf (58th) and Mehisane More (70th) allow the OL Lyonnes reserve to have a three-point lead over Albi, at the top of Pool B of D3. There are still four days to go.
