After a disappointing 0-0 draw against Marseille last week, Lyon suffered a heavy defeat against Bastia, losing 4-1. The goals for Bastia were scored by Florian Thauvin (45th and 61st minutes), Anthony Modeste (56th minute), and Wahbi Khazri (87th minute). Lyon’s lone goal was scored by L. Lopez in the 54th minute.
This defeat puts a dent in Lyon’s title aspirations, and they now face a more significant challenge to compete for the Ligue 1 title. Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has the opportunity to close the gap when they play against Saint-Etienne tomorrow. Lyon remains four points ahead of PSG, who has a game in hand, and two points ahead of Marseille, who gained a point with their 0-0 draw against Ajaccio.
