Alexander Lacazette made a grand appearance, ending his two-month goal drought with a hat-trick that put an end to his team's agony. Lyon finally secured a home victory at Groupama Stadium, defeating Toulouse 3-0.

The last time Lyon, currently at the bottom of Ligue 1 and in crisis since the start of the season, won at home was on May 17 of the previous season when they defeated Reims. In the current campaign, out of the fifteen matches played, they only managed to secure a victory in one game, during the eleventh round, away against Stade Rennes.
