Each football club had its unique way of conveying New Year’s greetings to its fans, and for Lille, the players opted for a creative and lighthearted approach. In a visual greeting, the Lille players left behind their usual football gear, such as cleats, shorts, and shin guards, in the locker room. Instead, they donned tuxedos and patent moccasins for an unconventional football game within the Pierre-Mauroy stadium.
The visuals captured the LOSC players playing football in their formal attire against a backdrop of cheerful laughter. The images showcased the players enjoying the game in an unusual setting, adding a touch of humor and joy to the New Year’s greetings.
The game seemed to excite coach René Girard, who joined in and participated in the players’ impromptu match. The unique and light-hearted approach provided a festive and memorable way for the team to extend their best wishes to the fans for the New Year.
