Reaction expected in Lyon this Sunday evening with the reception at Le Havre. After taking 8-2 in their first two home matches, OL absolutely must react.
Last in Ligue 1 after four days, theOlympique Lyonnais reacted immediately by dismissing Laurent Blanc who could no longer take it, and clearly did not seem to have the motivation to redress the situation. The squad is what it is at Lyon, but it is clearly not that of a relegation either. However, morale is at its lowest and it is in this area that the interim coaches, led by Jean-François Vulliez, have tried to work to restore confidence to a group which is sorely lacking.

Obviously, this lack of confidence has also spread to all the workings of the club, and even to the Lyon media Le Progrès. The latter makes a rather alarmist presentation of the match this Sunday, with the fear above all of being ridiculed once again at home, as was the case against Montpellier during the first at home, then against PSG, with each time a 4-1 defeat. “ Avoid further humiliation » : this is what the title of Le Progrès, which aims to be concise on the state of the troops and what the Lyon public, which risks coming sparsely, has the right to expect from its team.
« Faced with the impatience of its supporters, and while the stadium is threatened with desertification, the Lyon team has before it a duty of the utmost importance. This will involve avoiding further humiliation. We’re not talking about the Champions League, we’re just imagining a square of happiness in this devastated landscape. It would take almost nothing… Is a success against Le Havre superhuman? », explains the emblematic journalist Christian Lanier, for whom the time is no longer for demands, but simply to find what makes up the soul of the team, lost for several weeks now.
