Lyon narrowly beat Nice in their Ligue 1 match on Sunday, with the game ending in a 2-1 victory for Lyon. The win was a much-needed boost for the French side, who had been struggling recently.
The match saw both teams create chances throughout, but it was Lyon who broke the deadlock in the 54th minute through a well-taken goal from Memphis Depay. However, Nice were not to be beaten, as they levelled the scoreline just three minutes later through a penalty awarded against Lyon's goalkeeper, Steve Mandanda.
In the 78th minute, however, Lyon regained the lead when Anthony Martial scored his first goal of the season. But it was not all plain sailing for Lyon, as Nice continued to press and created numerous chances in the closing stages of the match.
Despite this, Lyon held on to secure the victory, thanks to a solid performance from their defence. The win means that Lyon now sit top of the table once again, after beating PSG in their previous match.
Overall, it was another impressive display from Lyon, who have been performing well in recent weeks despite facing some tough competition from their rivals. With the team looking strong and focused, there is no doubt that they will continue to push for honours this season.
