lyon 0 valenciennes 0

disappointing result but interesting match. as i said earlier there wasnt benzema and juninho but it didnt matter anyway cos i was sitting too far to see the players clearly. but i could sometimes make out fred and grosso.

lyon had most of the possession and for the 1st half they were camping at val's half. created so many chances but couldnt score. the goalie either saved it or they knocked the ball on too far and another val player got there first or they missed. oh ya and dont forget the disallowed goal. i'm guessing someone fouled someone else but i'm not sure. yeah when the ref disallowed the goal middle fingers sprouted everywhere...

there were 2 englishmen sitting behind me and they were talking about arsenal. when toulalan's face appeared on the screen they were like 'oh arsenal wanted him' and began talking about our scouts. it was mostly arsenal this arsenal that but i couldnt really make out what they were saying. but i could definitely hear the 'fucker's that they occasionally said. haha.

i dont know if it's like that in the emirates but in the stade de gerland there's this loudspeaker guy (he isnt a commentator and he isnt an mc either. he's the guy who says 'fabio' and pauses to let the crowd yell 'grosso!' and he also announces the substitutions etc) and he kept singing lyon songs to keep the crowd going. there was once he was shouting so much his voice broke and it wasnt only 1 time!!! and he kept shouting, it was damn funny.

we were standing on the seats because everybody else was doing so. haha. here are some pics!!!!! i know you all love them!!



unrelated to olympique lyonnais but that's what we did yesterday in the printing museum.

right i think that's all. it's 11.30 now and i desperately need to sleep. what's more at 5pm local time tmr it's the match against shit and i hope we're not going out. i know it has nothing to do with my need for sleep but yeah i'm going to sleep now. haha lame...
