Athletic Club 2 – Olympique Lyonnais 3

Athletic Club lost against Olympique Lyonnais by 2-3 in a corrected and updated version of the match of fifteen days ago in French territory. They were two very good matches against a powerful rival, yet no points. Something that seeing how the group stands currently makes qualifying for the Round of 32 practically impossible.

Herrera and Aduriz, from a penalty, in an explosive beginning of the second half cancelled out Gomis’ and Gourcuff’s first half goals, but the later goal by Lacazette was a difficult blow to overcome. In the other match Hapoel Kiryat and Sparta Praha have drawn one all, which is why the options to continue are now set on winning in Israel and defeating the Czechs by a one-goal difference in Bilbao.

Before all this, there are two imminent Liga matches, both with great difficulty; the first is on Sunday at 16:00 in San Mamés against Sevilla.
