The French media sang praises for Lille's advance to the semi-finals of the Europa League.

Chinese media are also reporting wildly on Hao Qiang’s current achievements in Lille!

"Hao Qiang carried Lille and reached the semi-finals of the European competition!"

"Hao Qiang's every step is a new history of Chinese players in European football!"

"The brightest star in the darkness of Chinese football: Hao Qiang!"

Hao Qiang's personal brand continues to be popular.

Hao Guofu and He Yuqing are so busy every day that they feel dizzy.

But in less than a year, Hao Guofu has returned to the peak of his personal wealth.

It can be regarded as a comeback after a big ups and downs.

Life can be said to be a village of darkness and bright flowers.

The couple originally planned to take a vacation at the end of the season and go to France to cheer for Hao Qiang live.

But the work in the factory cannot be separated from them.

So I could only silently pay attention and support and encourage Hao Qiang through phone calls.

Lille has two days of rest, and the team will visit the Stade Gerland to challenge Lyon on the weekend.

The 32nd round of the French Ligue 1 has arrived as scheduled.

Lyon is currently ranked fourth in the league.

There are only two and a half places in the French Ligue 1 Champions League.

The top two teams in the league advance to the group stage.

The third qualifying round.

Therefore, Lyon's goal at the end of the season is to at least reach the top three in the league.

Puel is under great pressure.

The Lyon dynasty collapsed last season. Not only has it failed to regain lost ground this season, but even the Champions League qualifications, which were once in the bag, have become up for grabs.

The French media are blunt: If Lyon does not finish in the top three at the end of the season, Puel will definitely be fired!

Lyon was waiting for work, and it was supposed to be the right time and place for them to face Lille at home.

But Lyon's team suffered from injuries at the end of the season.

As a result, the team's lineup was stretched thin.

On Lille's side, only Ceju has accumulated yellow cards and is suspended, with Ricardo Costa guest-starring as central defender partner Rami.

Other positions are the main force.

Lyon started 4231.

Goalkeeper: Lloris.

Defenders: Reveille, Kris, Lovren, Karlstrom.

Midfielder: Delgado, Turalang, Pjanic, Gonalons, Ederson.

Forward: Lisandro Lopez.

Defensive midfielder Karlstrom plays as left back.

Lyon fans have been very angry this season.

Although they made it through the Champions League group stage and advanced to the top 16, they failed to get far and have now been eliminated.

The league title race is basically out of the question.

Even if the sniper attack on Lille is successful, I'm afraid it will only enable Marseille's counterattack.

Thinking back to the glorious days of the Lyon Dynasty, when all the heroes came together, it seemed that anyone could dominate Lyon.

They also can't figure out whether Lyon's strength has declined seriously in the past two years, or whether the strength of other Ligue 1 teams has made great progress.

The season is coming to an end and Lyon is not competing for the title, but for third place.

This makes the gap in the hearts of Lyon fans wider and wider.

Lille have been in the spotlight this season.

After 1/3 of the schedule, we are leading the standings and are now in the semi-finals of the Europa League.

The two-way championship is enviable.

Even if the Europa League is not as good as the Champions League, there is no controversy at all.

But it cannot be used as a reason for self-comfort.

After all, I am still jealous of Lille's current record.

During the Lyon dynasty, Lyon only dominated Ligue 1 and occasionally performed impressively in European competitions, but most of the time they were still the younger brother in the eyes of Europe's powerful players.

If Lille really reaches the Europa League final, the French media will definitely have a collective climax!

After all, Ligue 1 clubs have too few European honors.

Not to mention the Europa League, it would have taken at least ten years to win the European Cup Winners' Cup.

Lyon fans are full of anger and dissatisfaction, hoping that the team can cleanly defeat Lille, who is exhausted after the European war, at home.

As for whether Marseille can seize the opportunity to top the list, that is something they do not care about at all.

Lyon fans are arrogant and the good times have lasted too long.

Nowadays, life has become bitter, my anger is still there, but my attitude cannot be lowered.

Even if the team is eager to sink Lille, the atmosphere in the stadium is not enthusiastic enough.

Perhaps because they were dissatisfied with the team's record, they didn't want to feed their enthusiasm to dogs.

Lille focused on strengthening their defense at the beginning in order to beat Lyon's counterattack.

I thought Lyon would show the spirit of a tiger descending from the mountain.

As a result, Lyon played steadily at home, started at a slow pace, and gradually improved their status.

The Lille generals were a little puzzled.

Aren't you going to fight for three?

Why are you so unambitious?

Logically speaking, given Lyon's historical background, they should take a very tough stance against any opponent in Ligue 1 at home.

It doesn’t matter whether you win or not.

In terms of momentum, it should be a sure win.

After all, he has been the overlord for several years.

As a result, it now looks like it has been restored to its original shape within a year or two.

Even if you can't say they are cowardly.

But it doesn't make sense to be cautious at the critical stage of striving for three points.

Besides, Lille is not in its prime either.

Lyon fans are upset.

Lille fans were calm and relaxed.

They are actually worried that the team will continue to lose points and Marseille will counterattack and climb to the top.

But this has been the case for the past month or so.

The mentality is already tired.

Hao Qiang teamed up with the midfielder to clean up Lyon's midfield organization.

Pjanic ran flexibly and actively and kicked the ball to avoid being intercepted.

It was done in a very orderly manner.

Lyon gradually picked up speed, and Lille's counterattack never had a good offensive environment.

Hazard and Gervinho were slow to get into form.

The performance is average and the threat is invisible.

Lille's defense is under increasing pressure.

When the top spot is involved, players will inevitably be under great psychological pressure and emotional tension.

Therefore, when defending, once Lyon speeds up, Lille will decisively foul.

Although Lyon failed to pose much of a threat.

But at the end of the first half, Lille had already paid the price with four yellow cards.
