Lyon announce football friendly against Chapecoense
Rio de Janeiro, Aug 2: French Ligue 1 outfit Lyon has announced a football friendly match against tragedy-stricken Brazilian club Chapecoense next week.
The fixture comes just over eight months after 19 Chapecoense players were among the 71 killed in a plane crash in Colombia, reports Xinhua news agency.
"It is with great pleasure that (we) accept Chapecoense's request to come to play a friendly next week," Lyon said in a statement on their official website on Tuesday.
Defender Alan Ruschel is expected to play his first match since the accident by lining up against Barcelona.
