Danish forward Kasper Dolberg scored twice as Nice avenged their midweek French Cup exit to Lyon with a 2-1 victory on Sunday in a game that saw both sides finish with 10 men. Lyon qualified for the quarter-finals on Thursday following a last-gasp 2-1 victory, but the visitors had defender Fernando Marcal sent off on 22 minutes for a foul as the last defender. Nice grabbed the lead through Dolberg in the 33rd minute after Ciprian Tatarusanu failed to hold a defleted Pierre Lees-Melou strike, allowing the Dane to convert the rebound. Lyon levelled before half-time when Karl Toko Ekambi turned home from point-blank range after a jinking run and shot from Houssem Aouar. The hosts were themselves left to play a man down after Adam Ounas was dismissed for his role in a scuffle involving Lyon centre-back Marcelo and Nice's Alexis Claude-Maurice. Dolberg hit the winner just past the hour when he poked in a driven low cross from Hicham Boudaoui as Nice extended their unbeaten league run to six games. Patrick Vieira's side climbed level with six-placed Lyon on 32 points, eight adrift of Rennes in the final Champions League qualifying spot. Marseille go to Bordeaux later on Sunday looking for a first win there in 43 years, while Paris Saint-Germain moved 13 points clear at the top on Saturday with a 5-0 rout of Montpellier at home. mw/dmc
