John Textor endeared himself to the Olympique Lyonnais fans during the club’s 3-0 Coupe de France victory over N3 side Pontarlier.
Textor’s reign as president of OL has not gone to plan thus far, with the club this season embroiled in a battle for survival in Ligue 1.

Les Gones are now on a four-game winning streak, which has not only helped ease fears of relegation, but also secured progression to the next round of the Coupe de France.
