Ex-Celtic forward Moussa Dembele featured for Lyon last night.
Lyon were able to frustrate Barcelona on Tuesday night, claiming a 0-0 draw in the first leg of their Champions League knockout clash.
The French side were underdogs heading into the tie, despite having the likes of Houssem Aouar, Tanguy Ndombele and Memphis Depay in their side.
There were only seven shots on target in the whole game as neither side could make the breakthrough, with Lionel Messi and co unable to shine in France.
Back at the Camp Nou, Barcelona will be favourites, but Lyon have given themselves a shot at springing a huge surprise after a spirited showing.
One of the players in the Lyon side was striker Moussa Dembele, who was making just a second Champions League start of the season.
Dembele, 22, joined Lyon from Celtic on deadline day back in August, and has hit seven goals in 20 league games this season, though only 12 have been as a starter.
The Frenchman is showing real promise, and Celtic fans raved about his display last night as many hailed his hold-up play as ‘frightening’ and ‘absolutely brilliant’.
Others Bhoys fans backed Dembele to go right to the top of the game one day, with neutrals even joining in to rave about the striker’s performance in the Lyon attack.
