Four minutes of stoppage time are added as Leipzig continue to try and recover here.
87'
Jean Lucas enters the game and replaces H. Aouar.
Aouar's had an impressive game and he's now replaced by Lucas.
85'
This is shaping up to be a huge result for Lyon's manager, Sylvinho, though. He was under huge pressure before this game, and after picking a much-changed, high-risk side, it looks like he'll be claiming a crucial three points for the away side.
83'
Leipzig continue to pass intently side to side, searching desperately for an opening - but Lyon are looking incredibly compact and chances remain hard to come by.
79'
M. Dembélé enters the game and replaces M. Depay.
Depay makes way for Dembele now as Lyon search for more energy to press from the front.
77'
Nkunku rises highest to meet Forsberg's deep free-kick, but he's called offside even as his header drifts tamely wide of the post.
75'
The away side have managed to keep control of Werner finally, after a nervy first half. With the back three now sitting just in front of their own box for much of the play, there's little space for the German striker to utilise.
73'
Lyon have dropped even deeper as we enter the final 20 minutes, and they're inviting plenty of shots on goal. Sabitzer rattles his second shot in as many minutes, with this one deflecting wide for a corner which Lopes eventually calmly collects.
71'
Sabitzer is the latest player for the hosts to shoot from distance; the Leipzig midfielder reacts first to a clearance from a free-kick but screws his effort well wide from 25 yards. The German side look like they might be running out of ideas here.

65'
M. Terrier has scored a goal for Lyon!
LYON SCORE AGAIN! 2-0! It's an almost identical goal to the first! This time, Terrier tackles Mukiele after the defender attempted to dribble past him, and with no defenders left, Terrier is free to round Gulasci and tap into an empty net!
62'
Depay almost wriggles onto the end of a long Lopes clearance, but Upamecano does exceptionally well to hold him off and shepherd it towards Gulasci in goal.
60'
Leipzig haven't been quite as dominant in the opening 15 minutes of this half, as they were in the first 45. The game's been marred by a succession of cynical fouls by both sides and in turn, they've each struggled to establish any rhythm.
58'
E. Forsberg enters the game and replaces A. Haidara.
Haidara is replaced by Forsberg as the hosts search for a little more creativity in the final third.
57'
Both managers are booked as tensions begin to rise here. Marcelo appeared to foul Werner near the technical area and both coaches stormed onto the pitch to argue their case - it's obvious how much it means to them both!
55'
W. Orbán gets yellow.
Orban joins his teammate on a yellow card after hauling Terrier down as he attempted to latch onto Aouar's smart throughball.
54'

50'
Halstenberg progresses through the centre of the pitch unhindered, before unleashing a stinging low shot from 25 yards that Lopes just manages to tip wide.
48'
A Lyon corner is cleared towards Dubois on the edge of the box, and he rifles in a low drive that deflects narrowly wide for another corner. Lyon have started brightly in this period after a largely defensive end to the first.
46'
Depay makes a surging run down the right and just about shimmies past the last defender, but his touch is too heavy and it runs away for a goal kick.
45' +1
HALF TIME: RB Leipzig 0-1 Lyon
45'

42'
Depay gets called offside after sprinting onto a hopeful lob forwards and slotting past Gulasci.
41'
Terrier gets back this time to thwart Werner as another Leipzig move develops. It's almost as if Lyon are playing with six men in midfield when they're out of possession!
39'
Lyon make a rare foray forward down the left flank through Kone's enterprising run and his cross gets deflected out towards Terrier who has a speculative effort blocked.
37'
Aouar nips in ahead of Werner to stop the next Leipzig move at a dangerous point 25 yards out. Lyon will need that sort of intelligent defensive work if they're to hold onto their advantage here.
35'
The hosts are really starting to dominate this game now. They've had three big opportunities to equalise since going behind and will consider themselves unfortunate if they go in at half time 1-0 down.
32'
Depay finds himself isolated up top 25 yards out and elects to cut in and smash a low shot just wide of the near post. That certainly wasn't a bad choice considering he had little support.
30'
Poulsen tries to dribble around Marcelo in the area, but the Lyon defender shepherds him out of play for a corner. The resulting delivery is initially cleared, but Mukiele latches onto the end of the next cross before squeezing a volley straight at Lopes.
26'
Laimer sizes up a shot from 30 yards that floats well over the bar. Nevertheless, Leipzig are beginning to exert significant pressure on Lyon.
23'
N. Mukiele enters the game and replaces I. Konaté.
The injured Konate is replaced by Mukiele in Leipzig's back three.
22'
Kone makes progress down the left and manages to force a corner despite being crowded out by Leipzig defenders. The corner's worked short, but when the delivery eventually comes in it's comfortably cleared.
17'
Lyon enjoy a spell of passing around their back three as they shift from side to side. Eventually, Andersen attempts an ambitious pass over the top to Depay, but the Dutch striker is ruled offside before he can control it.
15'
The German side look slightly rattled after conceding the opening goal. Their passing was crisp and accurate in the first ten minutes but now they look anxious in possession - a problem that's been compounded by Lyon's exuberant pressing.
11'
M. Depay has scored a goal for Lyon! Assist by H. Aouar.
LYON TAKE THE LEAD! 1-0! That's the perfect start for a team short of confidence! Aouar forces Upamecano into surrendering possession 20 yards out and it ricochets straight to Depay who cooly slots his finish past Gulasci with no defenders in sight!
Aouar did brilliantly to hassle the Leipzig backline into a mistake there - once the ball fell to Depay he only needed to apply the simplest of finishes!
10'
Lyon win a free kick in an inviting position after Terrier was tripped by Klosterman. However, Depay's delivery drifts comfortably beyond all the attackers and into Gulasci's grasp.
8'
Lyon are trying to settle after that early warning with a spell of gentle possession, but Leipzig are pressing furiously and the away side continue to look uncomfortable.

1'
Lyon get us underway attacking from left to right.

Hello and welcome to this Champions League Group G fixture between RB Leipzig and Lyon. The hosts enter this one in first place after an excellent 2-1 away victory at Benfica, where the dangerous Timo Werner struck twice to collect three points for the German side. They’ll be looking to further strengthen their grip on qualification by beating a Lyon side that underwhelmed in their opening group fixture – a 1-1 draw at home to Zenit.
LEIPZIG (3-1-4-2): Peter Gulacsi; Ibrahima Konate, Dayot Upamecano, Willi Orban; Konrad Laimer, Lukas Klosterman, Marcel Sabitzer, Amadou Haidara, Marcel Halstenberg; Timo Werner, Yussuf Poulsen.
SUBS: Marcelo Saracchi, Matheus Cunha, Nordi Mukiele, Yvon Mvogo, Christopher Nkunku, Emil Forsberg, Diego Demme.

SUBS: Moussa Dembele, Jean Lucas, Rafael, Jeff Reine-Adelaide, Bertrand Traore, Ciprian Tatarusanu, Kenny Tete.
The players are emerging from the tunnel and kick off is seconds away!
Still, it's going to take a huge effort from Lyon to hold on here against a confident, aggressive Leipzig side. Nevertheless, if they can cling on, it might well turn out to be the result that helps turn their season around!
Lyon now move a point ahead of Leipzig and into second in the group. However, Group G looks all set to be incredibly tight and competitive going forward with Zenit also just a point above the German side.
