Lyon stay in Champions League hunt with 3-0 win over Amiens

Both sides were on 63 points before Saturday and, with Marseille away to Troyes on Sunday, Lyon comfortably beat Amiens with Diaz opening the scoring in the 31st minute as he collected a pass from Depay, jinked inside and hammered home the ball.

Depay got on the scoresheet himself in the 83rd minute, deftly volleying home Bertrand Traore's cross from close range, and Traore made it three by sweeping the ball into the net two minutes later.
