Juninho free-kick spares Lyon's blushes

Lyon have set up a Coupe de France final with Paris Saint Germain following a late win over Sedan. The French champions were heavy favourites to see off second division Sedan, but were made to work hard for their victory. With just two minutes left on the clock, Brazil midfielder Juninho lashed home a deadly free-kick from 35 metres out to settle the contest. Lyon now meet PSG in the final following their 1-0 win over second division Amiens on Tuesday. The win provides coach Alain Perrin with the perfect boost ahead of this weekend's home clash with Nancy which could secure their seventh consecutive league title.
