Table of Contents
Olympique Lyon stormed closer to a 10th successive Champions League group stage appearance after a 5-1 thumping of Anderlecht at Stade Gerland.

Teenage midfielder Miralem Pjanić opened the scoring after 10 minutes before Lisandro López fired home a penalty six minutes later.

New signings Michel Bastos and Bafétimbi Gomis then struck in a four-minute period just before half-time to virtually end the tie as a contest.

The visitors pulled one back through Matias Suárez in the 58th minute, but Gomis ensured their joy were short-lived with his second of the game five minutes later.
