Lyon fires Grosso after two months
The former world champion pays for the disastrous start to the season. The team is last in Ligue 1.
Olympique Lyon relieved coach Fabio Grosso of his role after just two months, with the team stuck in last place in Ligue 1. With just seven points from twelve games, the club reacted promptly to the heavy defeat against Lille, trying to reverse a negative spiral that threatens to plunge one of France's most famous clubs into a fight for survival. The dismissal of Grosso, world champion with Italy in 2006, highlights the growing impatience in modern football, where even a big name is not safe from the ax if the results don't arrive.
