🦁 Our Starting XI for tonight 🔴🔵#OLRCSA pic.twitter.com/H3i9Pd5ZWN— Olympique Lyonnais 🇬🇧🇺🇸 (@OL_English) August 30, 2024 first match for Tessmann at Lyon, he's on the bench. Match went into halftime tied at 1-1
just like the first half, Lyon concede 2 minutes in... horrible marking on a 2nd ball from a corner kick.
Wiley gets the ball in a fantastic spot up field, but is unable to put in a quality cross to finish the move. won a corner though Lyon are, like, REALLY bad.
Holy cow, in the span of like 5 minutes OL scores one and then puts the ball in the net for an equalizer, but its pulled back for offside? But the replay makes it look VERY close...
And now OL are in front! The substitute Gift Orban has gotten a brace in under 20 minutes! It's now 4-3. OL have 2 windows and 3 subs left.
This match is nuts. Neither side want to put in defensive effort in the midfield, and it's been end-to-end play the entire 2nd half.
And that's the match. Thrilling 2nd half, and a huge 3 points for OL. Tessmann was solid in his 13' cameo. Put in good defensive effort, collected at least one very important loose ball, and was 3/3 on his passes.
Flubbed clearance by Tessmann in the last minute leads to a good Lens shot. Bailed out by good keeper save. ends 0-0.
1-0 Toulouse on a great shot by Gboho. Lightning quick after a change of possession. Tessmann tried to close on Sierro as he lined up the assist through ball, but couldn't block it.
1-1 now. Cross from the right wing - McKenzie reaches for it and may have slightly touched it, but then in bounces off Nicolaisen into the net for an own goal. From nothing.
Halftime and Tessmann has held his own. I wonder if there's a pre-planned sub here or not, whether at half or 60 minutes or so. McKenzie mostly pretty good as well.
Came off in the 67th. Solid enough performance to increase confidence in him. 89% passing including eight into the final third.
Tessmann isn’t in the lineup nor is he listed as a sub in Lyon’s Europa league game today against Rangers. is he injured???
