Olympique Lyonnais

Olympique Lyonnais (OL)  Founded in 1950, the club plays in Ligue 1, the top tier of French football. OL has won seven Ligue 1 titles, five Coupe de France titles, and eight Trophée des Champions titles. The club has also reached the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League once, in 2010. Home Stadium: Groupama Stadium, Nickname: Les Gones,Jersey colors: home white, away red.

Boasting one of the most vibrant supporter’s bases in the country and a recent history of utter dominance in Ligue 1, Lyon are a club to be reckoned with in France. From 2001 to 2008, no one but Lyon sat the Ligue 1 throne, and that’s a record for consecutive titles that still stands to this day. The landscape in France has grown and developed since then, but Olympique Lyonnais are still punching with big boys here and across Europe as well.
