Early goals from Tyler Morton gave Paulo Fonseca's team its fifth victory in six games to begin the season. Despite praising his team's "exceptional" start to the season, Lyon captain Corentin Tolisso said, "It was very difficult, we struggled for almost the entire game.” Following their 2-0 victory over Auxerre at home on Saturday, PSG now leads Lyon by goal differential. Lille is now in sixth place with 10 points after suffering a second straight loss. At Stade Pierre-Mauroy, Morton's nod in the 13th minute after Nicolas Tagliafico's accurate cross was the game-winning goal.
The home team struggled to get back into the game, but they couldn't defeat Dominik Greif, who was playing well, in the Lyon goal. In the 90th minute, Osame Sahraoui put up a strong chance, but Slovakian goalkeeper Greif produced a fantastic save to give Lyon the three points in the north of France.
