Before Game OL - AC Ajaccio

In his first start with OL, Islam Slimani scored a goal and added two assists, and was logically named man of the match -- it was a perfect example of a “successful beginning."

Despite a rotated eleven, OL won, as they had last year, their first match in the Coupe de France. While the usual starters did their job, the less frequently used players also took their chance, proving once again the formidable depth of the Lyon squad.

OL advanced to the Round of 32 in the Coupe de France with a 5-1 victory over AC Ajaccio. Dominant throughout with a largely rotated side, OL took advantage of a great start to the match to take the lead very quickly. The next match is on Saturday with a visit from Montpellier in Ligue 1.
