In a strong performance in the French league, Lyon defeated Nice 2-0, marking their thirteenth consecutive win. Czech midfielder Pavel Šulc contributed significantly to this triumph, providing an assist for the game's opening goal just before halftime. This victory not only solidifies Lyon's position in the league but also highlights Šulc's growing importance in the team, as he has now registered ten goals this season along with three assists.

Lyon's current performance under coach Paulo Fonseca places them third in the standings, widening their lead over fourth-placed Marseille by five points after the 22nd round of matches. Šulc's playmaking ability was instrumental in the buildup to both of Lyon’s goals on this occasion. His vision and technical skills on the ball have proven essential for the team, making it clear why they have been so successful lately.

Overall, Lille's victory emphasizes the potential for a title challenge this season, with Šulc's performance showcasing not only his personal achievements but also the strength of the team as they push for further success in Ligue 1. The continued winning streak will likely boost team morale and increase their confidence as they aim to extend this impressive run going forward.
