Can they repeat the feat ? After you have gained their qualification to the "Final 8" of the champions League against Juventus Turin (1-0, 1-2), the Lyonnais found Manchester City in the quarter-finals, on Saturday 15 August in Lisbon. A good souvenir for the Gons, still undefeated, in the face of the Citizens (1 win, 1 nil).

The happy hour has sounded ! In the fall of 2018, the OL – then led by Bruno Genesio – had caused a sensation by toppling Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium (1-2), where no French club had ever won. In return, the Lyonnais had conceded the draw (2-2), keeping their invincibility in the face of the Citizens. This feat, the Gons were carried out in the group stages. But this season, the challenge is quite different. It is a place in the semi-final of C1 which is in the game.
