00:00new names like Tyler Morton like Matt Turner having another American in the
00:07bench but having another American in the team along with Matt Turner who's now on
00:12loan but still owned by Lyonnais and probably will come back at the end of the season
00:22the seventh time former French champions and staved off relegation to the second
00:29division after an appeal but I've lost several key players and now they kick off
00:33the new campaign here in Lens against the long side
00:39Lens fans urging their team on as Andrean Thomason delivers the corner and it's headed over the bar
00:53Alonso rising high
01:00first attempt Premier League on English soil they won that game by three goals to one
01:07Tolisso looking to feed Mikko Tadzi did well Mikko Tadzi to get that under control
01:12in the early stages of this game Tolisso's cross headed out by Saar
01:17Maitland-Miles it's a clever ball from him and Tolisso with a good shot so much of last season from him
01:28making those runs arriving in the penalty area adding that goal threat
01:32Tolisso with a fine effort first time and a really strong hand by Robain Risser
01:39blocked by Tessman
01:40Aguilar it's a good ball in from Ruben Aguilar it's going to be picked up by David Machado is a superb hit
01:51from Machado but wide of the far post from the Colombian Tessman he got his head to that that would have been sub goal if Machado had scored from that angle goodness me
02:04again Godwin Koyalipu came in midway through the season he has gone to Levante in Spain
02:12Kylavogi is the new number one striker Fufana the youngster Fufana
02:16Slices the effort wide off the bench in Ligue 1 last season starting today
02:26just snatching of the shot a little bit not really any other options available to him though
02:30that ball's closed down by Saeed it looks to go around Remy Dicot from the angle
02:51Andy Diouf are we going to see a goal before half time
02:54Andy Diouf continuing his run Fufana back to Ruben Aguilar first time ball in from him
03:03and Wesley Saeed denied by the save from
03:07and I was looking for a big season from Wesley Saeed the number 22
03:11Kylavogi to Udol it's a good ball in from Mathieu Udol
03:17three added minutes at the end of this first half as Fufana plays it into the middle and Leon get the goal
03:24the breakthrough comes in stoppage time at the end of the first half
03:31for the away team George Mikhail Tanze the scorer
03:40from Malik Fufana's assist the lost support silenced here
03:46first goal of the new Ligue 1 season for Olympique Lyonnais and it comes for George Mikhail Tanze a player who has to really step up this season
04:01following the departures of Alexandre Lacazette and Ryan Scherke as well
04:05Fufana's first time ball in Mikhail Tanze working hard to get in front of Mathieu Udol
04:12and I think it was actually Udol attempting to clear that and effectively played the ball off Mikhail Tanze on his way into the net
04:23lost nil Leon 1
04:26his whistle to his mouth there is the end of the first half
04:30and it is met with cheers from
04:37a little bit of boost in the end and I'm thinking that Fufana Mikhail Tanze connection is the one
04:43we're going to be seeing for the entirety of the season here on me is worse with them
04:48Lyon
04:54four lines which used to dominate the landscape here
05:02really on which this club was founded
05:09what can Lyon do from this? Horton's ball in helped on at the near post and
05:14headed wide by Tolisso it's a wicked delivery
05:20Lyon penning the home team
05:24so Kugben he's still just 20 years old
05:29Duf into the penalty box only Duf with the shot and it's a good save again from Remy Dickon
05:35so we'll now have the opportunity to make the substitution
05:45Torval
05:53Tombo Tomasson, Lance will take the free kick here and
05:56Abner Vini
06:00Sarr with the interception
06:01Kilo Vogi through to Wesley Saeed, Saeed is in
06:05and he's put it wide Wesley Saeed
06:09in front of Clinton Mata
06:11then he felt he was being pulled back
06:18and that prevented him from getting a proper attempt in on goal
06:21continue for now but that will surely be checked
06:27Lyon on the break, Mikael Tadze, Tolisso touches it on from Malik, Fofana
06:32Vissau makes the save
06:36a replay of that and then the chance for Fofana, loss
06:39come out two, Andi Diu for Karel's one
06:51off target fielder
06:57for the whole team, Adrian Tomasson's ball in
07:00all the way by Tessman
07:01Karabets giving away the
07:10they believe they can get that call
07:13hopeful balls into the box which have been dealt with comfortably enough by the Lyon defense
