Endrick Scores on Debut as Lyon Knock Out Lille in Coupe de France 2-1

The 19-year-old Real Madrid loanee delivered the winner on his first start, underscoring Lyon’s momentum against a Lille side short at the back.

Overview

  • Lyon advanced to the Round of 16 with a 2-1 away victory at Stade Pierre-Mauroy.
  • Lille conceded inside the first minute after goalkeeper Arnaud Bodart failed to clear, Nathan Ngoy equalized, and Endrick netted the decider before halftime.
  • Corentin Tolisso controlled midfield and supplied the deft touch that created Endrick’s winning strike.
  • Coach Paulo Fonseca praised Endrick’s display and said the forward should progress further with more rhythm and understanding of the team.
  • Lille’s elimination extends a poor run as defensive shortages and repeated errors persist, with recent absences compounded by an injury to captain Benjamin André.
