PSG snatched victory thanks to Joao Neves at the end of stoppage time. A cruel outcome for OL, who believe they “played a very good match” but paid for “an unfair scenario.” Jorge Maciel was the first to get fired up: “We saw the fouls, 59,000 people saw them. Except for four.” The assistant denounced “arrogant” officiating and added: “They don’t need to play with 16…”

Corentin Tolisso, for his part, spoke of a breaking point: “It’s frustrating. Every weekend there are mistakes. We don’t understand. There needs to be more dialogue.” The midfielder assured: “This is not what we were told at the beginning of the season.”

“Referee tonight is a disaster”

Matthieu Louis-Jean hammered the point home: “There is a penalty. There is a foul on Tessmann. Nothing is coherent.” He concluded: “What do we need to do? We’ve tried everything. Referee tonight is a disaster.”

Even former Lyon players were upset. Alexandre Lacazette, who left last summer, posted on X: “Well done OL. Not easy with 11 against 12.”
