Very criticized after his dangerous exit on Romain Thomas during the match between OL and Angers last weekend, Anthony Lopes has some support, however.
Internally, Olympique Lyonnais obviously defends their Portuguese international goalkeeper, in the sights of observers after this new dangerous exit. In the columns of the Parisian, Lionel Charbonnier stepped up to the plate at the beginning of last week to defend the goalkeeper trained at OL. “By force, he will not escape the crime of ugly mouth. The referee was right not to whistle because it was the Angevin who made the fault first. When the ball is in the air, he has to stop, but we can clearly see him looking in the direction of Lopes ” the 1998 world champion confided in particular.
In the last few hours, another great international goalkeeper has flocked to Anthony Lopes’ rescue. And he is a man who knows the Portuguese by heart since it was Grégory Coupet who wanted to defend the OL goalkeeper. “Good luck Antho, for the rest of the season because if there is a fault, you might as well change jobs” a tweeted the ex-coach of the goalkeepers of Olympique Lyonnais, now stationed in Dijon, before continuing. “There, in rugby there is a fault for Antho. If tomorrow we sanction the goalkeeper for such a good aerial outing then I will honor my contract as goalkeeper coach in Dijon to quickly end my career ”. A media release that will undoubtedly please Anthony Lopes, insofar as the OL goalkeeper denounced a real foul-mouthed offense against him on the RMC antenna last week. Very criticized because of its atypical style, the one which remains undisputed and very defended in Lyon keeps a good number of supporters.
