The French football league has opened its new season with a bang as Lyon drew 2-0 against Nice in their opening match. Despite a lackluster performance from the home side, the visitors were able to secure all three points thanks to goals from Moussa Dembélé and Jonathan Ikoné.

For Lyon, it was a frustrating start to the season as they struggled to find their rhythm early on. The hosts created several opportunities but failed to convert them into meaningful chances. However, Nice's defensive frailties allowed Lyon to take control of the game in the second half.

Dembélé, who is known for his pace and dribbling skills, took advantage of the space behind the opposition defense to score the first goal for Lyon. His strike was a testament to his exceptional skill set and was a sign that he will be a key player for the team this season.

Ikoné then added to the lead for Lyon by scoring his first goal for the club. The forward showed great composure and accuracy in front of goal, capitalizing on some poor defending from the visitors.

Despite the disappointing start to the season, Lyon fans can take comfort in the fact that they have a solid squad with plenty of talent. With the likes of Dembélé, Ikoné, and other talented players, the team has the potential to challenge for honours this season.

Overall, Lyon's draw against Nice was a mixed bag. While they may not have won the match, they did show that they are capable of competing at the highest level. As the season progresses, we'll see how Lyon fare against stronger opponents and whether they can build on their promising start.
