Lille reacted in time to prevent Sturm Graz from spoiling their European party and after letting a two-goal lead slip away, they scored the winning goal in the 81st minute to put them in the Champions League.
He goal by Norwegian Gabriel Haraldsson It lifted the depression of the French, who after defeating Real Madrid, Atlético de Madrid and Bologna and drawing against Juve, have 13 points which according to mathematical models puts them in the next stage.
He still has a perilous trip to Liverpool and a visit to Feyenoord to determine whether he finishes in the top eight or has to play a play-off on his way to the last 16.
Something difficult for the Austrian champion, who completes a bad campaign in Europe and is very compromising on his continental future before traveling to Atalanta and hosting Leipzig.
And after a disastrous first half, they dreamed of getting something positive from Lille after three minutes of magic that led them to a 2-0 lead, but they could not complete the victory.
In the first half, the impressive exercise of collective play by the B’sRuno Genesio brought euphoria to the stands of Pierre Mauroy, He surrounded the Austrians, forced them to cover the waterways in their defense, and left the conflict with only one question: how long will the walls of Strum Graz last.
It could have been a penalty called by the referee but overruled by VAR in the 17th minute, or in the 30th minute, when the Canadian Jonathan David failed a clear occasion.
But it was in ’37, when Moroccan Sahraoui was able to open the scoring with a pass from Brazilian Alexsandroa fair reward for the game and the chances of the French, who were comfortable against a rival confined and lacking in freshness.
Ten minutes later, the Dutchman was in extra time Bakker got secondthat in view of what was shown on the ground, directed the conflict towards the terrain of the method.
Nothing could be further from the truth. A minute later the Georgian Kiteishvili took advantage one of several Austrian incursions into the territory of Lille to find the square of Chevalier.
A warning that was confirmed as soon as the second half beganDanish Bierth took advantage of Lille’s confusion to secure the tie and force the fans to put away the confetti that promised a fun afternoon.
The draw changed everything. Strum Graz was encouraged and the doubts of the French clouded their talent and strength. They no longer dominate, nor do they suffocate their rivals like they did in the beginning. Now he’s gone.
Trembling went to the grass and every approach of Strum Graz to the Chevalier’s place made the Gauls drool, who lingered in assembling their forces to once more endanger the enemy’s quarters.
They did it, without the same intensity as in the first half, but with enough heart that’s why the Swede Gabriel Gudmundsson, who returned after a few months out due to injury, scored the third goal.
