Tickets OGC Nice - Lyon

History and honours

Founded in 1950, Olympique Lyonnais entered a new era under the presidency of Jean-Michel Aulas, who led the club from 1987 to 2023. Today, the Gones boast an impressive honours list, including five French Cups, one Coupe de la Ligue, seven Trophées des Champions and, above all, seven consecutive French league titles between 2002 and 2008, a period that marked the club’s golden age.

For more than a decade, OL have also been renowned for having one of the best youth academies in Europe. Players such as Karim Benzema, Alexandre Lacazette, Corentin Tolisso, Alassane Pléa, a former Nice player, and more recently Amine Gouiri, all came through the club’s academy in the capital of Gaul. Olympique Lyonnais have also played a leading role in the growth and development of women’s football in both France and Europe.

Despite Lyon finding an equaliser, Nice continued to push forward and regained the lead before half-time through an opportunistic Diop. After the break, Diouf produced a crucial moment by saving a penalty, before Hicham Boudaoui gave Nice a two-goal cushion at the end of a perfectly executed counter-attack. Brave and united until the final whistle, Les Aiglons held on to claim a valuable victory.
