First-half goals from the Dutch intern­ationa­l and Martin Terrie­r saw Lyon consol­idate their hold on third placePARIS: Memphis Depay helped Lyon defeat Angers 2-1 in Ligue 1 on Friday to end a three-match winless run and maintain their push for Champions League football next season. First-half goals from the Dutch international and Martin Terrier saw Lyon consolidate their hold on third place on 59 points, six clear of fourth-placed Saint-Etienne. This was Lyon’s first outing since coach Bruno Genesio announced his departure at the end of the season. Depay put Lyon in front on 14 minutes, Houssem Aouar providing the long assist. The 25-year-old striker almost added to that tally minutes later only for his shot to be deflected off Butelle’s near post.
