FOOTBALL MEMORIES

While the world stood still in 2020, football strangely continued. Empty stands, late Champions League matches, and players suddenly heard shouting at each other on TV. Olympique Lyonnais was one of the teams that surprised many in Europe during this period. The club might not have had the same finances as PSG, but Lyon still had something that French clubs historically excelled at: young players with technique, speed, and courage.

Over the years, Lyon had been home to stars like Juninho, Benzema, Essien, and Lacazette, and even in more recent times, the club continued to develop exciting names.

The dark, brush-like stripes almost give the jersey a streetwear look. It looks like something you could wear to a match and out in the city afterward. This is also why many newer Adidas jerseys from that period have become popular among collectors – they dare to do more than the old standard templates.

And there's just something charming about French club jerseys. They appear less frequently in Denmark than Premier League jerseys, and precisely because of that, they feel a bit more special. Not all kids went to school wearing Lyon. But those who did had usually watched highlights with tricks, long-range shots, and some French winger who dribbled past three players for no real reason.
