Certainly, this season, LOSC knows how to be up to the Champions League. After his victories against Real Madrid and Atlético, his draw against Juventus or his box against Feyenoord, the Bruno Genesio team again held the shock on the ground of a great Europe, Borussia Dortmund (1-1), in the round of 16.
It is not easy, however, to tackle the famous yellow wall. And this meeting had started rather badly for the Dogues, who forgot Karim Adeyemi at the entrance to the penalty area after a corner. The German international, with a sumptuous shot, made this little error pay (1-0, 22nd). The LOSC did not make a great first period, far from it, and it took a little offside to avoid the goal of 2-0, refused to Pascal Gross (45th+2).
Lille can believe it
Fortunately, the Northerners have rectified the shot on the return from the locker room. There was a first opportunity for Jonathan David (53rd), who should probably have obtained a penalty for fault of Schlotterbeck (56th). The Canadian striker took revenge, on an action initiated by Benjamin André, by sending Hakan Haraldsson to equalization (1-1, 68th).
It was deserved for Lille, who was the best team of this second period, quite clearly. But we will have to be satisfied with this draw which leaves everything open before the return match in a week. “It's almost a shame”will admit on Canal+ Foot a Benjamin André who believes that 2-1 for his team is not so far. “There is room”,
wants to believe the old Rennais. A week ago to continue dreaming.
