The warm-up jerseys worn by Olympique Lyonnais players during the match against Olympique de Marseille are auctioned on the Matchwornshirt website. These jerseys, all numbered 9 in tribute to former Lyon attacker and leader Bernard Lacombe, aim to raise funds for the Léon Berard centre. Bernard Lacombe’s family wanted the benefits of this sale to be fully donated to cancer research in support of the Centre’s work. This initiative maintains a link with the club’s past and supports an important humanitarian cause.

Malick Fofana, the left winger of Olympique Lyonnais, scored his first goal with the Belgian national team in a qualifying match for the 2026 World Cup against Liechtenstein. Belgium, after a draw against North Macedonia and a victory against Wales, was aiming for victory to maintain its momentum. The Red Devils won the 6-0 game, with a notable performance by Malick Fofana, who scored a 91th minute goal after a nice move with Alexis Saelemaekers. This performance strengthens his position on the national team and could potentially open doors to him in Ligue 1.

Alejandro Gomes Rodriguez, a U18 English player, also scored in a match against Uzbekistan. Captain of the team, he scored the second English goal, bringing to 21 goals in 27 selections his impressive series of achievements with the youth. This performance could attract Paulo Fonseca’s attention and offer him an opportunity to get a place in the professional team. In addition, Thomas Meuiner, a defender of Olympique Lyonnais, was titularised as a Belgian national team against Liechtenstein, testifying to the impact of Lyon players on the national team. Belgium will face Kazakhstan next Sunday at its next international truce.
