During the victorious match against Nice (4-1), Lucas Paqueta produced another good performance. The Brazilian has become an essential part of the middle of Lyon land.
Junihno found a precious gem while unearthing Lucas Paqueta. The sports director of Olympique Lyonnais was active in signing the Brazilian from AC Milan for € 20m last summer. To compensate in particular for the departure of Jeff Reine-Adelaide, Paqueta made his entry into the workforce where competition is tough. Nevertheless, he found his place as a starter thanks to his qualities as a worker in the midfield.
Lucas Paquetá, a worker very involved in the OL game
Technical, versatile and enduring, Paquetá has integrated perfectly into the team by being decisive in the defensive and offensive animation. He distinguished himself in Rudi Garcia’s 4-3-3 by in particular his appetite for physical combat. Moreover, the Brazilian is the player who makes the most tackles, commits and suffers the most faults and makes the most clearances. A worker who brings good luck to his team. In 9 matches played this season: 8 wins and a draw.
Against Nice (4-1), Paqueta still made a good copy. At the end of the meeting, the midfielder expressed his joy at the success which had made it possible to temporarily take the place of leader in Ligue 1 (recovered by Lille on Sunday evening). « Three other points that lead us to leadership. I can only thank God and all those who encourage me, it’s been a long time since I felt at home ”, he expressed on his Instagram account.
