OL Lyonnes make five changes for Le Havre tie, Bacha and Renard rested | OneFootball

OL Lyonnes have made five changes to their squad for Wednesday’s Coupe de France quarter-final against Le Havre, with Selma Bacha and Wendie Renard rested.

According to Le Progres, head coach Jonatan Giráldez said after Tuesday’s session he was leaning towards a hybrid side with only a few rotations following the Abidjan trip for the Coupe de la Ligue final against PSG.

Hours later the club named an 18-player group for the 15:00 kick-off at GOLTC. Three switches come in defence, with Ashley Lawrence, Bacha and Renard making way for Sofie Svava and prospects Maïssa Fathallah, 16, and Elma Nelhage, 22.

In midfield, Korbin Shrader returns after missing the weekend for personal reasons, taking the place of Melchie Dumornay, the sole scorer against PSG and the standout of the trip.

Up front, Vicky Becho, present in Côte d’Ivoire but not fully fit to play, should be involved this time. Tabitha Chawinga is being rested.
