Difficult evening for Olympique Lyonnais this Wednesday in the round of 16 of the Coupe de France but the match turned to the advantage of the Rhodaniens against Laval (2-0). Hampered by the defensive animation of Laval which could have done very badly with numerous counterattacks, the Lyonnais failed for a long time before making the difference at the end of the game via Afonso Moreira and Endrick. After the game, Paulo Fonseca delivered his findings.
Far from overwhelming his team, he especially wanted to congratulate the Laval residents at the microphone of beIN Sports : «it was a very difficult match, Laval defended very well. I think we had a lot of chances in the first half and after that it was difficult. The defensive line was dense, few spaces, we didn’t play well and we forced ourselves inside. Against this kind of team, we have to do things differently. Afterwards, Endrick’s talent makes the difference. Laval defended very well and counterattacked well. The opponent had a good match.»
