Ligue 1: Lyon grabs a draw against Le Havre and leaves the red zone

Fabio Grosso will have work. New OL coach, the Italian will officially take up his duties this Monday. He will try to turn around a team which conceded a draw at home against Le Havre (0-0).

Lyon failed to secure its first victory of the season. Led by a trio of coaches Jean-François Vulliez, Jérémie Bréchet and Sonny Anderson, the Gones nevertheless delivered an interesting game but lacked sharpness up front.

Sonny Anderson announced a team with new intentions, but we had a hard time seeing him in this first half. Rayan Cherki, once again very inconsistent, offered the first big opportunity in the 25th minute with a shot from a tight angle. The opportunity for Desmas, the Le Havre goalkeeper, to put himself forward for the first time of the evening. There wasn't much more to eat before half-time, despite Casimir, the right winger from Le Havre, in very good shape. The two teams returned to the locker room with a goalless draw, in a match without much intensity.

The Lyonnais returned from the locker room with much better intentions. Sharper, they created many big chances like Kumbedi, blocked in the open area in the 47th minute. ). But the biggest opportunity of this match is to the credit of Le Havre. In the 72nd minute, Casimir serves Grandsir perfectly alone in front of the open goal at six meters, but Le Havre decides to put it over. OL respond through Nuamah, interesting this evening. Launched face to face with Desmas, the Havrais goalkeeper pulled out all the stops. The Lyonnais went up a notch with the return of the Portuguese Moreira, on loan from Chelsea, but Cherki also came up against Desmas. In the end, the nets never shook this evening but Lyon showed their best. We will now see if Grosso will be able to do better than his predecessors in the coming weeks.
