Lyon edge past Brest to stay on top of the table

Brest, Feb 20 (SocialNews.XYZ) Lyon survived a scare against Brest before edging out the hosts 3-2 in a Ligue 1 match.

The visitors led 3-0 at the break through Lucas Paqueta, Houssem Aouar and Dutch striker Memphis Depay's penalty.

 

But Brest fought back with goals from Brendan Chardonnet and Irvin Cardona in the second half.

Lyon are on top of the table, ahead of Lille, on goal difference whereas Paris St-Germain are a point behind the two on third with 54 points.
