The Contenders: Olympique Lyon’s UEFA Champions League highlights so far

In this series, we take a look at the highlights of the remaining 16 teams in the Champions League….

French outfit Olympique Lyon have done well this season to reach the knockout stages of the UEFA Champions League.

The team from Lyon came through a group containing the likes of Manchester City, Hoffenheim and Shakhtar Donetsk to set up a tasty Round of 16 fixture against Barcelona.

Bruno Genesio’s side are unbeaten in the group stages and can be a dangerous proposition in the knockout stages. 

Lyon started with a brilliant away win at Manchester where they beat Pep Guardiola’s men 2-1. However, bizarrely, they followed the three points from that game with five successive draws that helped them reach the knockout rounds with an unbeaten record.

The likes of Nabil Fekir and Memphis Depay have all been impressive for the team in their march to the Round of 16.

Watch all their best plays so far here.
