In the initial stages of the match, Lille firmly grasped the initiative on the field. It was in the 37th minute that Sahlavi gave Lille the lead with a precise low shot into the far corner of the empty net. Immediately after, in the 45th+2nd minute, Barker's goal further widened the gap. However, in the 45th+4th minute, Kiteishvili scored for Graz Storm to tie the game at 1-2. ! [Moments of the match](https://www.ballti.com/UploadFiles/Sinaimg/202412/202412121082639392983288.jpg) As the game changed hands, the Lille defense sputtered and Bireth capitalized on the opportunity to help the Gratz Storm tie the game 2-2 amidst the chaos. At the crucial moment, Jonathan Davey dished out an assist to Haraldsson to help Lille eventually come back to win 3-2. ! [Match highlights](https://www.ballti.com/UploadFiles/Sinaimg/202412/202412121082812590913288.jpg) The stats show that Lille had 67% of the possession, 18 shots, 9 of which were on target, and led in corner kick chances with 9, while Graz Storm only had 4 shots and 2 corner kick chances. Nonetheless, Lille ended up winning the game with a slim margin. Lille came into the game on a 15-game unbeaten streak, which included defeating strong teams such as Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Bologna and Storm Graz in the Champions League. Currently, Lille are in sixth place in the league with 13 points and are a virtual lock to qualify for the play-offs (top 24). It is worth noting that Lille's head coach, Genesio, was the former coach of Chinese Super League side Beijing Guoan. He took over in the summer of 2019, but was fired after only a year and a half in charge. Now, Genesio has led Lille to make a splash in the Champions League, not only steadily improving their ranking, but also reaping lucrative bonus income. It is reported that the Lille team received 18.62 million euros in participation fees, 9.1 million euros in match bonuses, 27.08 million euros worth of basic bonuses, a total of up to 44.8 million euros.
