The players of Olympique Lyonnais win a new title of champions of France after their 9-0 victory against Soyaux. Two days from the end, they are already assured of their eleventh consecutive consecration in D1 and also remains in the race for a new triplet.


Like last season, Olympique Lyonnais has validated its title of champions of France against Soyaux, but this time the Lyonnaises did not have to wait until the end of the match to ensure the victory.


Lyon wanted to forget Bordeaux


After a complicated win Wednesday against Bordeaux, Gérard Prêcheur has lined up a team close to the one that can be seen in the European Cup with a 4-3-3 in which Jessica Houara played on the right and the Morgan / Hergerberg trio / The Sommer in attack. On Soyaux side, some absences including Elodie Nakkach replaced in the middle by Patricia Mbazogho Ndong, international player Gabon.


From the first minutes, Lyon is dangerous with first attempts rejected by Romane Munich. It was first Camille Abily who sees his shot pushed back by the goalkeeper on free kick (3rd) then Ada Hegeberg who tries his luck at 18 meters but Romane Munich diverts the ball for a corner (7th).


Lyon creates opportunities in the first fifteen minutes, but the opening of the score is not expected. In the 21st minute, Alex Morgan manages to center left side and Cynthia Viana who tries to intercept the ball at the far post and deviates in his own goals.


From then on the goals ensued with a quick double for Ada Hegerberg (24th and 31st) then Alex Morgan who added a fourth goal, on a service of Eugénie Le Sommer in the area of ​​Soyaux (37th). Saki Kumagai even added a fifth goal on penalty before the break (43) after a hand in the box.


Goals as soon as the locker room returns


As soon as the locker room returned, Lyon scored again by Eugénie Le Sommer on a center from Amel Majri (46 '), a goal followed a few moments earlier by another Alex Morgan on a cross shot at the edge of the box ( 47th). A few minutes later, Laura Bourgoin and close to close the gap (58th) but it is finally Eugenie Le Sommer who adds an eighth goal for OL in the 59th minute.


If Ada Hegerberg gives way to Elodie Thomis, the offensive festival continues with the goal of the head of Wendie Renard on corner (67th). Nine to zero, it was the score in the first leg in Charente and it is also on this score that the two teams separate at the end of this match.


With this victory, Lyon is eight points ahead of Montpellier two days from the end, a mathematically insurmountable gap. This is the eleventh consecutive title for Olympique Lyonnais, since the 2006/2007 season. At the time OL had also preceded Montpellier in the standings.


A league that proved to be less complicated than expected after the fall of Paris in the second half of the season. The shock expected next weekend against Paris Saint-Germain will have less stake than expected while the two teams must be in the final both in the Coupe de France Champions League in the days to come.
