The weekly show “As long as there will be Gones”, dedicated to Olympique Lyonnais, is now available in podcast on various digital platforms. This week promises to be particularly rich in events for the Rhodanian club, with a dense calendar including Ligue 1 matches, a quarter final of Ligue Europa against Manchester United and the derby against Saint-Étienne to come. In order to decipher Lyon news, Nicolas Puydeboist and Enzo Reale, the programme’s consultants, exchanged with Jean-Paul Ancian, an expert in physical and mental preparation, thus offering an in-depth analysis of sports and psychological issues.

The first part of the show focused on the convincing victory of Olympique Lyonnais in Auxerre (1-3), a crucial result that allowed the team to return to fourth place in the championship, at the door of a direct qualification for the Champions League. The rest of the show was dedicated to the Europa League return match in Old Trafford, where the Red Devils and the Gones will end up after a draw (2-2). The analysis highlighted OL’s current positive dynamics, contrasting with a visibly less confident Manchester United, and highlighted the opportunity for Alexandre Lacazette’s teammates to put a glorious page in the club’s history.

Finally, the show addressed the derby against Saint-Étienne, a particular game that will require rigorous mental preparation. Stressing the difficulty of a series of close meetings and a third consecutive trip, speakers stressed the importance of a strategic approach to address this crucial meeting. Listeners can find the entire program on Ausha, Deezer, Podcast Addict, Amazon Music and the dedicated YouTube channel.
