Bosz hails Lacazette’s performance but believes he ‘can do better’

Peter Bosz (Lyon coach, after OL’s 2-1 victory against Ajaccio at the start of the Ligue 1 season) : “We have to win the first game at home. We were leading 2-0 after twenty minutes playing well. The exclusion after thirty minutes changed a lot of things. Fortunately the opponent also received a red card which helped us. In the second half, we controlled the game. It makes sense to have been disturbed. We had prepared the match to play eleven.

In the head, we take the penalty, the red and the goal. And in the head, it’s different for our players who above all thought of not taking a second goal and we may have backed off a little too much. In the second half, we saw that our line of defense was playing too low. I don’t think we had a physical problem. We were able to see the importance of Alexandre Lacazette, the respect of the opponent for him, the support of the fans is a good thing but he can do even better“.
