PSG and Lille both fought for victories over the weekend to push Lyon out of first place, but against a Metz team that had lost their last nine trips to France’s second city, the men of Rudi Garcia – on third place two points ahead of the two teams ahead of them at kick-off – they were fully expected to return to pole position.
Garcia resisted the temptation to add newcomer Islam Slimani and saw that the prolific trio Karl Toko Ekambi, Tino Kadewere and Depay caused problems for the visitors from the start. Kadewere did not connect properly with a cross from Lucas Paqueta (3 ‘) and Marcelo headed a free kick from Léo Dubois over the bar (18’).
Toko Ekambi forced the first real save of the game from Metz goalkeeper Alexandre Oukidja when he clutched a Depay pass (37 ‘) before firing a powerful drive over the bar (39’) as the hosts tried to put the guests on their feet during the break.
It was Metz, who had lost just one of the last seven away games and came closest in the first half. A Farid Boulaya cross came back from a post and Lamine Gueye saw his shot stopped by Marcelo on the orienteering goal line and Anthony Lopes was stranded (42 ‘).
Excellent anticipation from John Boye denied Kadewere one clear view of the goal (48 ‘), but when full-back Thomas Delaine was sent off with an injury (55’), Metz looked like they were vulnerable to the spectacle of the hosts attack.
Houssem Aouar , who suffers from an adductor injury that kept him away from the starting XI, was also featured (68 ‘), along with Maxwel Cornet, who pushed an attempt by Oukidja (70’) onto a post.
Toko Ekambi then found that Net and shot home after Thiago Mendes ‘shot bounced off Oukidja’s foot but Aouar in an offside position meant VAR ruled out the goal (74’).
Slimani, who scored an 18- mid-week signed a month-long contract with Leicester City sen came off the bench 14 minutes before the end, preparing Aouar for another opportunity that Oukidja stopped (85 ‘). But it was Metz who would end the stronger.
Pape Sarr bent a shot from Lopes ‘crossbar (89’) – the OL goalkeeper was fortunate that the ball didn’t bounce off his back into the net – before Leya Iseka, who fell off the bench just past the hour, burst behind the home backline, grabbing Boulaya’s pass and rounding down Lopes before shooting home to stunned Lyon ahead of the derby next weekend with Saint-Etienne .
Without the Algerian international, Leya Iseka’s goal would have been a consolation, not a match winner. Oukidja was the foundation on which Metz had achieved a surprising victory.
Lyon had won the last eight top games against Metz, scored an average of three goals in every encounter and played seven clean sheets in this series.
