Lyon extended their winning streak to 13 matches with a 2-0 win over Nice. Tolisso and Nartey scored the goals, securing Lyon's 13th straight win across all competitions.
Mohamed Ali-Cho’s header from an early corner found Kail Boudache in the six-yard box. However, the substitute failed to find the target, shooting over the bar.
Ali-Cho was again involved in the action later on when he played Sofiane Diop through, but once again, the opportunity went begging as Clinton Mata got back to get his body in the way of the shot.
Just as the opening half looked to end in a stalemate, Lyon struck. Pavel Sulc did an incredible job of holding up the play, waiting for some help to launch a counter-attack.
Abner’s cross was then headed by Sulc over to Corentin Tolisso, where the captain beat Maxime Dupe to give the hosts the lead on the stroke of half-time.
Nice had a half chance to begin the second half through Tom Louchet, who tried his luck from inside the box.

He was met with a wall of white shirts, which blocked his effort. Lyon looked much more composed in the second half and doubled their lead in the 65th minute thanks to some more good work from Sulc.
Pavel Sulc's run sparked the move, and Noah Nartey seized his chance, beating Dupe with a well-timed shot. Lyon's pressure paid off, doubling their lead.
Nice's intensity dropped off in the second half, with just two shots, allowing Lyon to cruise to victory. The hosts comfortably saw out the win.
Lyon's win keeps them in third place, with a fourth clean sheet from five home games. Nice remains 14th, six points clear of relegation, but have conceded the joint-second most goals (40)m
