Remi Garde's side were in control of the match right from the start, with Alexandre Lacazette going close as early as the third minute.

Steed Malbranque forced Reims goalkeeper Agassa Kossi into making a save in the 11th minute, and a minute later Yoann Gourcuff tested him as well.

Lyon continued to dominate proceedings at Stade de Gerland, as Lisandro Lopez and Anthony Reveillere troubled Kossi.

The hosts eventually pulled ahead and the opening goal came on the stroke of half-time when Anthony Weber put the ball into his own net.

Lyon doubled their advantage in the 73rd minute when Bafetimbi Gomis shot home from just yards out.

Then in the final minute of normal time Lopez scored his side's third goal of the afternoon, latching on to a through-ball from Malbranque to fire in from close range.
