The 9th round of Ligue 1 ushered in a game, Lyon faced Strasbourg at home. Lyon achieved a record of 5 wins and 3 losses in the league. Lyon has lost the last two league games, losing to Toulouse and Nice. In the Europa League on Friday, Lyon defeated Basel and won all three Europa League group stage games. Now returning to the league, Lyon faces Strasbourg. As a result, Lyon completed the ultimate victory and ended its two-game losing streak in the league.

Lyon has a 4231 formation for this game. Schultz was at the front. The attacking combination of Karabetz, Tolisso and Fofana worked together. Morton and Tesman partnered as a double midfielder. The back four of Myers, Clinton Mata, Niakate and Tagliafico started. Greif serves as the starting goalkeeper. Lyon's starting lineup is worth a total of 123 million euros. The total value of Strasbourg's starting lineup is 151 million euros.

Fofana got a solo opportunity soon after the game started, but his shot was saved, which was a pity. Subsequently, Enciso's long-range shot was too square and the goalkeeper easily confiscated the ball. In the 25th minute, Panicelli scored with a header to help Strasbourg take the lead. However, Lyon soon equalized the score. Ducoure's own goal gives a big gift. Tolisso then missed a penalty kick and missed the opportunity to take the lead.

Ducouré was sent off for a foul in the second half, resulting in Strasbourg having only 10 men to fight, and the balance of the game tilted towards Lyon. Lyon, who had the numerical advantage, continued to strengthen their offensive. It was not until the 91st minute that Lyon finally seized the opportunity. Moreira scored with a pocket shot and completed the winning goal! Lyon players celebrated wildly. In the end, Lyon defeated Strasbourg 2-1.

The championship situation is a bit chaotic! Paris Saint-Germain tops the list with 20 points. However, PSG's advantage is minimal. Lens ranked second with 19 points. Marseille ranks third with 18 points. After Lyon won this game, its total points were 18 points, ranking fourth. The difference between the top 4 teams is only 2 points at most. This season's Ligue 1 title race seems to be a little bit suspenseful.
