Football video: Nancy’s Gennaro Bracigliano walks ball into net

0
A goalkeeping howler of epic proportions "Hey, Gennaro. Welcome to goalkeeping school. Lesson one: under no circumstances do you walk across your goalline with the ball in your possession. It's sort of like doing the opposition's job for them. Got that?" Sadly he hadn't, and this was painfully exposed during Nancy's Uefa Cup tie with Lech Poznań [. Click to continue reading...

Nancy Keeper Walks the Ball Into His Own Goal

3
Nancy goalkeeper Gennaro Bracigliano will want to forget about this one, from last night's 2-2 draw away to Lech Poznan in the UEFA Cup. Semir Stilic's free kick looked easy enough to deal with. Just step back and take a simple catch. And that's exactly what Bracigliano did, except he kept stepping back after he'd caught [. Click to continue reading...

The Truth About Referee Favoritism

0

In light of the recent accusations that Lyon get favored by arbitration by getting calls decided their way and the brouhaha over video replays, I thought I would post the results of an in depth investigation by Nice Matin, who took a look at every single error in every single Ligue 1 match in the 2007/2008 season.

Lyon vs. Nancy, Or: Pretending not to care about Bayern

0

Claude Puel says that the only game he's thinking about is tomorrow's game against Nancy, but we all know he's lying because next Tuesday is Lyon's crucial match against Bayern Munich, a game that Lyon need to get at least a draw in if they want to keep their hopes of qualifying for the round of 16.

Down, but Not Out… Well, Not for Long at Least.

1


As everyone's probably already heard, Fabio Grosso went down in the 18th min of Italy's 2-1 win over Cyprus. Fabio left the game with an injury to his flank. The diagnosis is two fractured ribs. It's believed he will be out of the Lyon line-up for at least one month. That amounts to Grosso missing at least (6) matches.

French Ligue One: Lyon keeps grabbing the headlines with Benzema in the spotlight

2
Lyon used three unanswered goals in less than 10 minutes to overcome a 2-0 Le Mans lead. The goals were provided by Sidney Govou (71st min), Karim Benzema (74th), and Liverpool/Aston Villa castaway Milan Baros (78th) respectively as OL looks less than dominant this year.

French Ligue One: Monaco, Lyon, Marseille all win, but PSG falls off pace…again

Lyon scraped by Saint Etienne in the battle of the local rivals - young'un Karim Benzema provided the lone strike in the 53rd minute. A win at home but they still don't look like themselves - if it weren't for the good play of back-up keeper Remy Vercoutre, Lyon could have been looking at an [...] Click to continue reading...
