When you look at the table of the French championship, one thing must catch your eye – the great Lyon is alone in the last position.
After 11 rounds, he still doesn’t have a single victory, he collected only four points… Too little, alarming and enough to alarm the fans. They are angry, angry and want radical changes. At the stadium in Lyon – the Metz team managed to win a point – 1:1.
They almost didn’t get all the spoils, Abdoulaye Jalo scored a great goal in the 77th minute, and Scully Alvero secured a draw for Fabio Grosso’s team seven minutes later.
The legendary football player, and today the coach of the French great, appeared near the touchline, even though he was seriously injured the previous week, when the Lyon bus was stoned while arriving at the game against Marseille at the Velodrome.
After the duel with Metz and another game without a win, he had to report to the fans. Fans called Gross to have a chat with him.
“The problem is that there is no one from the club who is there to support you. If you have something to tell us, do it, if you don’t: it’s not up to you, we won’t blame you”, said the leader of the Lyon fans, among other things. Ultras supported Gross – first with chants and then with applause.
The Italian spoke to the fans, thanked them for their support despite the very bad state the club is in.
“We will not give up. I promise that we will give everything and I hope that it will be enough”, said Grosso.
