Liverpool 1 – 2 Lyon: Super Subs Save the Day
By: Inara |Since so much has been said about yesterday’s game, I’m not going to go too much into it. I just wanted to say how proud I am of my team. We’ve been waiting for this win for a long time. It might just be the group stages, but the biggest criticism of Lyon has been [...]
Liverpool vs. Lyon, aka Pjanic Time

Random News and Updates

The biggest news is the medical update on Bafetimbi Gomis. Two days ago at Guingamp, Gomis collapsed during practice with the France squad. He was out for a [...]
Lens vs. Lyon
By: Inara |We’re only 24 hours away from a much needed international break. With Lyon’s upcoming fixture schedule, the boys will need every opportunity to rest up. Of course, that isn’t the case for our international players, but at least the other half of the squad can recuperate from half-healed injuries (I’m looking at you, Lisandro). The [...]
CL: Debrecen vs. Lyon
By: Inara |Tomorrow, Lyon will be taking on Hungarian side Debreceni VSC in their quest to qualify for the knockout rounds. They are already off to a good start, having taken three points from Fiorentina, but there are still five games to go, and anything can happen.
