Lyon and Marseille to serve up a spicy French Cup match
Lyon manager Claude Puel promised a match with extra spice against
Marseille in the French Cup on Wednesday compared to the bland goalless
draw in the league before Christmas.
Lyon thrashed fifth-tier Concarneau 6-0 at the weekend to qualify for
this last 32 fixture which will also act as a litmus test for both
teams' championship credentials.
"This will be a no-holds barred cup match," said Puel.
"The 0-0 draw in the league (on December 14 in Lyon) was a good
result for Marseille who did not have to push themselves.
