Trainer Peter Bosz also lost to RC Lens with Olympique Lyon. The surprising number 4 of the Ligue 1 was too strong in his own stadium due to a late penalty from Florian Sotoca: 1-0. Lyon has now lost its last four games.
Lyon is seventh with 13 points after nine games. The still unbeaten Lens has 21 points, leader Paris Saint-Germain 25.
The pressure on Bosz’s position was already great before this match. Last season, Lyon finished disappointingly eighth in the French league under the former footballer, which means that it does not play European football this season for the first time since 1997.
Recently, technical director Vincent Ponsot informed Le Progrès that the former coach of Ajax, Vitesse and Heracles, among others, is not undisputed. ,,A good coach is someone who achieves results, someone who makes his team play well, someone who integrates well into the club project and someone who helps players move forward. Peter only meets those last two criteria.”
