Lyon were held to a disappointing goalless draw by a spirited Le Havre team at the Groupama Stadium on Sunday evening.

Lyon were still lacking in creativity and cohesion. […]
Olympique Lyonnais made it two wins from two at the start of the 2022-23 Ligue 1 season with a comfortable victory against Troyes at the Groupama Stadium.

Lyon twice relinquished the lead as they dropped two more points on their travels in this disappointing start to their Ligue 1 campaign.
