After bringing down Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid, Losc welcomed another European great, Juventus Turin, this Wednesday evening in the Champions League. And if the Mastiffs did not win this time, they conceded a very good draw (1-1).

Dominated in possession of the ball, Lille, on the other hand, managed to score first, with their only shot on target in the first period. It was the inevitable Jonathan David, well launched by Edon Zhegrova, who opened the scoring (1-0, 27e). For its part, Juve had two goals canceled for offside positions (24e and 41e), and came up against a great Lucas Chevalier, notably author of an exceptional save in front of Dusan Vlahovic (34th).

Returning from the locker room, Thiago Motta’s men increased the pressure on the Northerners, who ended up cracking. Following a foul by Benjamin André in the area, Dusan Vlahovic set the record straight in Tremble (1-1, 60e). Juventini then pushed to win, in vain.

With this draw, Losc is provisionally twelfth in the standings with 7 points on the clock, before returning to Bologna on November 27. Juventus is tenth (7 points).
