On February 28, in the 28th round of the French Ligue 1, Lyon hosted a strong rival Paris Saint-Germain.

In the last two rounds of Ligue 1, Lyon needs to face Lille and Paris successively, and at the same time, the Champions League round of 16 is in the middle to fight Chelsea.

Overall, it's a small devil's schedule.

However, after two games, Lyon lost to Lille first and then won against Chelsea, and overall played well.

Now it's up to us to see how we play at home against Paris.

In the stands of the Stade Olimpico de Lyon, fans unfurled a large banner that read "Kill Paris three times".

In addition, there are various slogans such as "Paris Busters" and "Super Zhang Gan Flip Paris".

Since the start of the new season, Grand Paris has only lost two games in all competitions so far, both of which were to Lyon.

The French Super Cup lost 1-2 to Lyon, and the Ligue 1 lost 3-4 at home to Lyon.

Six goals in two games, all of which were won by Zhang Chaoqiang.

If Lyon wins Paris again in this game, they can not only complete the league double, but also complete the feat of killing their opponents three times in all competitions.

In fact, during the seven consecutive championships, Lyon has more than once achieved a double league defeat against Paris.

But at that time, Grand Paris was not a local tycoon, and it did not attract hatred as much as it does now.

Today's Grand Paris is richer, but at the same time more enviable.

The game officially began, with Lyon in full swing after their big win over Chelsea in midweek, and the home side pressed the big Paris in succession.

At present, Grand Paris is not evenly staffed, and there is a lack of an important attacking starting point, Di Maria.

In the previous Champions League round of 16 away against Benfica, although Paris won 2:1, Di Maria was injured by his old club.

Benfica was Di Maria's first stop in Europe, where he spent three seasons at Real Madrid.

So in the last two rounds of Ligue 1, Di Maria has been absent due to injury.

Lyon was in good shape, but Paris was absent from the key player Di Maria, so in the first half of the game, Lyon took the initiative and constantly threatened the opponent's goal.

In the 17th minute, Zhang Chaoqiang passed Van der Wiel's cross in front of the goal and assisted Lacazette to grab the goal.

In first-half stoppage time, Zhang Chaoqiang burst into the box past David Luiz and fired a shot into the bottom left corner of the goal.

"Super Zhang is really a Paris nemesis, he broke the Paris Saint-Germain goal again!"

"Super Zhang pass, Lyon has a 2-0 lead over Paris in the first half!"

At halftime, the French commentator talked about Zhang Chaoqiang's Paris nemesis attributes.

However, after the half-time adjustment, the substitution adjustment of Grand Paris quickly achieved a certain effect.

In the 61st minute, Lucas Jr., who came on as a substitute, helped Paris pull a goal back and quickly launched a counterattack.

However, Lyon also gradually suppressed the rhythm of the game, and there was no danger to hold the score of 2:1.

In this way, relying on the lead achieved in the first half, Lyon successfully defeated Grand Paris at home and completed the task of three kills in the season.

At the end of the game, Lyon's home stadium was once again full of cheers.

Lyon beat Chelsea and Paris for two consecutive home games, and the fans were really happy.

And by beating Grand Paris, Lyon recovered the three-point difference.

In the current Ligue 1 standings, Grand Paris has 70 points and Lyon 69 points.

The return of the two teams to a single game could make it possible to swap the subtle points difference in the standings.

Lyon's three kills to Grand Paris, the direct impact of which is that Grand Paris coach Blanco was once again handed down.

According to the Parisian media, the management of Grand Paris has had enough of Blanco, and if he can't make a breakthrough in the Champions League next, then even if he wins the Ligue 1 title this season, Blanco will still be driven away.

The so-called Champions League breakthrough means reaching at least the last four.

In the previous three consecutive seasons, Paris had fallen in the quarterfinals of the Champions League, and the Qataris were clearly tired of this position.

It's time to reach the semi-finals again this year.

The semi-finals of the Champions League are the best result in the history of Grand Paris.

If you can, you should enter the final or even win the championship, which is in line with the expectations of the Middle Eastern tycoons.

At the same time, the Paris media also reported that the Qatari consortium is ready to spend a huge amount of money to bring in Zhang Chaoqiang in the summer transfer period.

This topic was originally a cliché and has been reported many times before.

But this time, the Parisian media swore that the Qatari tycoon had prepared a transfer fee of 100 million euros and must poach Zhang Chaoqiang, the Parisian nemesis.

Chinese fans are very fond of this kind of news, and they are discussing the authenticity of the reports.

After all, it's 100 million euros, which sounds quite scary.

Although everyone generally does not believe the rumors of the Paris tabloids, "Zhang Chaoqiang is worth 100 million" has spread and has become another new label for him.

And everyone knows that with the comprehensive performance of this season, if Zhang Chaoqiang really transfers, even if it does not reach 100 million, it will at least tens of millions.

For example, Chelsea, who had just been defeated by Lyon, had just returned to London, and the British media rumored that they were ready to offer Zhang Chaoqiang for 60 million euros.

March 3, midweek, French Cup quarter-finals matchday.

Lyon played again as a substitute and eventually beat Ajaccio 2-0 at home thanks to Fekir's cross to advance to the last four.

Since he was injured in the UEFA Super Cup at the beginning of the season, Fekir has been recovering from an injury until now and has finally returned, which is enough.

However, now Lyon has a new midfield combination, and the run-in is very good, and Fekir can only play as a substitute for the time being.

In the subsequent draw for the semi-finals of the French Cup, Lyon's good fortune finally came to an end and successfully drew Paris Saint-Germain.

The other game in the semi-finals is Marseille vs. Lorient.

Lorient also relied on good luck and fought weakly all the way.

Overall, Marseille should have no problem beating Lorient to reach the final, even if they have been struggling this season.

What's more, Marseille still need to rely on the French Cup to qualify for next season's European competition.

The round of 32 of the Europa League has ended, and both Ligue 1 teams have been successfully eliminated.

Saint-Etienne drew 4-4 with Swiss side Basel over two legs and went out on an away goal disadvantage.

Marseille was eliminated 1:2 by Athletic Bilbao in La Liga.

For Marseille, the French Cup is their only hope of qualifying for Europe next season.

But in general, it is widely believed that the match between Lyon and Grand Paris will be an early final.

Whoever makes it to the final has a high probability of beating Marseille to win the title.

Of course, if Marseille can't even beat Lorient, the team that makes it to the final has a better chance of winning.

Based on the depth of the squad, Lyon certainly can't match the big Paris.

However, Lyon won the home game and had the advantage of being strategically located.

Lyon fans are already clamoring for another defeat at the Stade Olimpico and the epic task of beating Paris four times this season.

Before the French League Cup quarterfinals met Paris, Fournier took the initiative to arrange to give up, and many Lyon fans complained.

This time the semi-finals of the French Cup met again, and everyone thought that they could not give up again.
