Nigerian striker Gift Orban stole the spotlight as Lyon secured a spot in the Coupe de France final with a commanding 3-0 victory over Valenciennes. Orban’s timely contribution off the bench proved decisive in Lyon’s triumph, MySportDab Reports.

In a highly anticipated semi-final clash, Lyon aimed to extend their cup journey while Valenciennes sought to create an upset.

Lyon took control early in the second half when captain Lacazette converted a penalty-kick in the 51st minute, providing his side with the lead.

Buoyed by Lacazette’s goal, Lyon continued their offensive onslaught, with the captain adding another goal to solidify their dominance.

However, it was Orban who delivered the defining moment of the match. Introduced as a substitute, Orban wasted no time, scoring just three minutes after stepping onto the pitch.

Orban’s instinctive finish underscored Lyon’s depth and the astute squad management by manager Ernest Nuamah. Since joining in January, Orban has quickly made his mark, with this goal marking his second for Lyon.

Despite missing a late opportunity to extend their lead, Lyon emerged victorious with a resounding 3-0 win, sealing their place in the Coupe de France final.

Orban’s heroics will be remembered as Lyon now await the winner of the PSG vs Rennes semi-final clash.

The stage is set for an exhilarating final, with Lyon poised to vie for the Coupe de France title, buoyed by Orban’s impactful performance and the team’s collective determination to clinch silverware.
