On Sunday night, Lyon secured their first win of the season with a convincing 3-1 victory over struggling Clermont Foot at Stade de Gerland. The match was a dominant display from the home side, who took control early on and never looked back.
In the opening stages, Lyon created several chances but it wasn't until the 25th minute that they broke through. Moussa Dembélé found space on the right wing and played a ball into the box for Rémi Garde to head home. It was a well-deserved goal for the striker, who had been in fine form this season.
The hosts continued to dominate the game, with Lyon creating more opportunities before half-time. However, it was Clermont who scored their first goal of the season in the 44th minute when Yoann Bonaventure's header from a corner found the back of the net.
Despite conceding, Lyon were not deterred and responded with a strong second-half performance. Moussa Dembélé was again involved, scoring his second goal of the match just five minutes later after some excellent teamwork between himself and Anthony Lopes.
Tolisso then added to Lyon's lead in the 78th minute, curling a shot into the top corner from outside the box. The result was a deserved three points for the home side, who have now climbed up to fourth place in the league table.
Overall, it was another impressive display from Lyon, who showed their class against one of the bottom teams in the division. The team will be hoping to continue this positive momentum as they look to push further up the table.
