Corentin Tolisso Expresses his anger and incomprehension after the Derby Saint-Étienne - Lyon
Lyon – Corentin Tolisso strongly expressed his disappointment and incomprehension after a derby marked by a 2-1 injury and defeat against Saint Stephen on Sunday, October 1. The Lyon midfielder described this meeting as “fear derby of his career”.
The incident occurred after 20 minutes of play, when Corentin Tolisso was released on injury following a violent cap by Lucas Stassin. Initially sanctioned with a red card, the arbitrator, Mr. Letexier, then corrected his decision and awarded him a yellow card.
Apparently injured, Corentin Tolisso used his Instagram account to confide. He expressed his regret to John Textor, the new owner of Olympique Lyonnais, while expressing his dissatisfaction with the arbitral award. “Mr. Letexier’s apology will not alleviate pain or misunderstanding,” he published, accompanying his message with a screenshot of Stassin’s fault on his foot.
The Olympique Lyonnais will wait the next few days to determine the exact nature of Corentin Tolisso’s injury and assess his absence. The 30th day of Ligue 1 saw this match between Saint-Étienne (2) and Olympique Lyonnais (1).
