Launched in a maintenance operation, AS Saint-Etienne showed a very disturbing face against Lyon. For Didier Roustan, it was too easy for OL.
ASSE hoped to be able to revive in Ligue 1 and bring back at least one point from Groupama Stadium, which would have been a snub for Olympique Lyonnais. But Jessy Moulin and her teammates did not weigh heavily against OL and the Greens left the capital of Gaul with even more serious doubts. For Didier Roustan, if the team of Rudi Garcia was at the height of the derby, the same cannot be said of that of Claude Puel totally missed out on this shock.
According to the journalist, there was not really a match between OL and AS Saint-Etienne. ” There were all the ingredients, the intensity, the audience … but for this derby to be exciting it is better to be two. And there, it is not their fault, but it was such a rider alone from Lyon, Saint-Etienne was asphyxiated, below all, even if the second period was more choppy with these stories of VAR. It was a good Ligue 1 match, but not an exciting match (…) The fact that the derby comes after the victory against Juventus against a dying Saint-Etienne team is great for OL “, Didier Roustan, rather worried about AS Saint-Etienne at this stage of the season, explained on L’Equipe. In particular, what we saw during the first period, this concern is very legitimate.
