Lille OSC continues to wait for the first win of the new season. The reigning champion drew against Metz (3-3) last week and suffered a hopeless defeat against OGC Nice on Saturday evening: 0-4. Kasper Dolberg scored two goals; Justin Kluivert and Pablo Rosario had a starting place. Kluivert was taken off sixteen minutes before the end and had no contribution to the goals.

Nice had a dazzling start to visit the champion. Within six minutes, coach Christophe Galtier’s team was already 0-2 ahead. The opening goal came from Kasper Dolberg: in the second minute Lille goalkeeper Léo Jardim saved from Lille in the short corner on a shot by Amine Gouiri, after which he tapped Jean-Clair Todibo’s rebound against the post and Dolberg was in the right place to kick in. to complete the third instance. The 0-2 came in the name of Mario Lemina, who successfully lashed out with the outside of the foot after a conquest by Dolberg, just outside the Lille penalty area.

Deep in the stoppage time of the first half, Nice also got a penalty. Benjamin André stopped a shot from Dolberg by hand, after which Amine Gouiri successfully placed from eleven meters: the attacker pushed the ball controlled into the bottom right corner. Dolberg made it 0-4 after the break with a header from close range and Gouiri appeared to take the 0-5 score twenty minutes before time, shortly after Dolberg was substituted, when he came face to face with goalkeeper Jardim. That goal was disallowed after an intervention by the VAR for offside.
