Present at a press conference, Corentin Tolisso delivered a very surprising anecdote about Alexandre Lacazette.
Author of a new double against Strasbourg, Sunday, for Olympique Lyonnais’ last outing in the championship (2-1), Alexandre Lacazette was the great architect of the 6th place won by his team after a fantastic comeback.
The Lyon goalkeeper did not tremble when converting a decisive penalty in stoppage time in this crucial match. And yet, Lacazette had no idea that this goal could propel OL to 6th qualifying place for the Europa League. This is what his friend Corentin Tolisso confided at a press conference.
“Even after the fireworks, he still didn’t know we were 6th”
“ Before he took his penalty, he did not know that Montpellier was drawing, explained Corentin Tolisso. It was only Max (Caqueret) who knew because the Virage Sud supporters had told him. But afterwards, I don’t know if the others knew. But Alex (Lacazette), even after the fireworks, still didn’t know that we were 6th“.
“ He still hadn’t seen the result from Lens. I taught him in the locker room. And that’s where it got even crazier. I had more emotions than when I was able to win a title with Bayern“, concluded the 2018 world champion. An anecdote that says a lot about OL’s completely crazy end to the season.
