"Olympique Lyonnais: Rayan Cherkia approaches the Fékir and Depay records"

Olympique Lyonnais won a convincing victory against Stade Rennais on the 31st day of Ligue 1 (4-1), thanks in part to Rayan Cherkia’s decisive pass, bringing his total to ten this season. The offensive environment is thus close to the records of former Lyon players such as Nabil Fékir and Memphis Depay. Since his debut with OL, he has scored 42 assists and 29 goals in 181 games all over the world.

April 28, 2025 marks the 13th anniversary of the last victory of Olympique Lyonnais in the Coupe de France final against the US Quevilly. This victory, achieved thanks to the goal of Lisandro Lopez, remains to date the last trophy won by the club.

The show “As long as there are gones” hosted this week Yanis Ghemmouri and Adam Messaoudi, MMA fighters and kickboxing, to discuss OL’s victory against Rennes. The Lyon team not only won the three points but also improved its goal-awareness, allowing it to climb to fifth place in the standings, at a point in the dams for the Champions League. Corentin Tolisso’s good form during this match was also highlighted, while many thought his season was over after a previous injury.
