FRANCE-BASED Warriors star Tino Kadewere could realise his dream of playing in the UEFA Champions League after he played a crucial role as his side Olympique Lyon beat close rivals Monaco 3-2 in a French Ligue 1 match to enhance their chances of featuring in Europe’s elite club competition next season.
The 25-year-old Zimbabwe international forward, who recently recovered from a thigh injury, was introduced at the break with his team trailing 1-0 before they turned it around in the second half despite playing with 10 men.
Lyon’s Dutch skipper Memphis Depay, Marcelo, and Rayan Cherki scored the crucial goals which secured an important win for Lyon while Kevin Volland and Wissam Ben Yedder scored for Monaco who went into the match at their Stade Louis II as favourites.
