Lyon secure third as Ibra scores 30th goal

Lyon, who have 67 points, will take part in the third qualifying round of Europe's premium club competition while surprise packages Nice qualified for the Europa League play-off round after claiming fourth place with a 2-0 win at AC Ajaccio.

Nice finished with 64 points, one point ahead of Saint-Etienne who drew 1-1 at sixth-placed Lille.

With no goalkeeper left on the bench, France centre-back Mamadou Sakho fulfilled that role but could not stop Arnaud Le Lan's penalty. First choice keeper Salvatore Sirigu was suspended.

At Lyon's Stade Gerland, Onyekachi Apam's handball earned the hosts a penalty that was converted by Lisandro midway through the first half.

Grenier doubled the tally with a jaw-dropping 35-metre free kick that went under Benoit Costil's bar.

Lyon's arch rivals Saint-Etienne, who qualified for the Europa League third qualifying round by winning the League Cup, settled for fifth after being held at Lille.
