VINE: Alexandre Lacazette with a late winner that’s either wonderful or wonderfully jammy

We're giving Lacazette the benefit of the doubt

Darragh Murphy

Lyon found themselves at a 1-1 stalemate at home against Reims last night before Lacazette received the ball on the right of the opposing penalty area.

The Frenchman then let rip with his right foot, firing the ball towards Reims ‘keeper Johnny Placide.

Now we can’t decide whether the goal was some sort of Roberto Carlos-esque stroke of genius from an acute angle.

Or a flukey hit-and-hope cross/shot that just happens to catch the ‘keeper out à la Paul Konchesky.
