AS Saint-Etienne : Ligue 1 – 21 day: ASSE humiliated by Lyon in the Derby | ASSE News

We knew the Greens were decimated by the coronavirus. We were worried before the Derby. The feedback reassured us a little. But this Sunday night’s match worries us about the rest of the season for ASSE.

The Greens weren’t there at all. Because of COVID? Maybe some players weren’t fully recovered but that’s far from the only explanation. In positioning, in tactics, in transition, in envy, Claude Puel’s men were beside their pumps.

The movie of the match

Yet theThe match started well with a great opportunity from Moueffek whose strike passes right by, in the first minute. And there, we said to ourselves that it could be a nice derby. But on a corner quarter of an hour of play, Kadewere opened the scoring for Lyon. And from there, nothing more with the Greens. At the break, there is 2-0 for Garcia’s men, after a goal from Marcelo on a shot provided by Dubois (36 ‘)

ASSE will take a third goal from a set piece. An idiotic foul by Bouanga, allows Dubois to shoot a new free kick for a header from Marcelo (3-0, 58 ‘). Then Neyou, who played backwards the whole match, loses the ball and Kadewere who gets rid of Kolo too easily scores a double and the fourth goal for OL (67 ‘). The humiliation continues in the last ten minutes with a goal against his camp in Bouanga after a free kick from Depay (82 ‘).

The Greens will have taken four set goals in one match … never seen before. From now on, we will have to analyze the reasons for this rout to bounce back from Sunday, January 31 in Nice for the 22nd day of Ligue 1. Fans want a reaction from the whole club, their reactions are likely to be heard quickly. ASSE is in crisis, it’s official.
