Ligue 1 side Olympique Lyonnais has produced the shock of this Champions League season. They have knocked out Manchester City who was one of the favourites of this season.

Cornet scored a well-taken goal and Moussa Dembele came on as a substitute and produced a Man of the Match display by scoring two late goals to win the tie.

Dembele said with a smile: “We are still in it, which means we have a great team. We are taking it game by game, not getting carried away.”

“We will try to be ready for Bayern.”

Lyon coach Rudi Garcia was proud of his team for producing such an amazing display.

He said: “With Pep, you can expect anything. We knew that Pep could concoct something to cause us problems. But in the end I think we won the tactical battle in the sense that we’ve mastered our tactical system, even if I changed it (during the match),”

“I’m experiencing a lot of happiness right now … when I see the joy in the dressing room, I tell myself that I’m in the right.”

“You can’t stop when you’re on such a good path. It’s not the night to talk about Bayern, but we’re only in the semi-finals, we’ve still got a few steps to go.”

Garcia also praised Man of the Match Dembele: “It was a disappointment for Moussa not to start, but I told him, he was going to be very important when entering. Salvation came from the bench.”

Lyon will face a strong Bayern Munich team which had beaten Barcelona by 8-2. They will have to be on their toes to avoid such a heady defeat in the semi-final against Bayern.
