Hoffenheim result decisive for Lyon's Champions League progress, warns Bertrand Traore

Lyon are aiming for 'the best result' when they lock horns against Hoffenheim in Tuesday's Uefa Champions League tie, according to Bertrand Traore.

The French Ligue 1 side, yet to lose a match in the competition, sit at the summit of Group F with four points from two games.

They enjoyed a fine start with a 2-1 win over Manchester City in the group opener before settling for a 2-2 draw against Shakhtar Donetsk.

Ahead of their meeting against the bottom-placed Bundesliga outfit, the Burkina Faso international warned his teammates on how the outcome of the encounter at the Rhein-Neckar-Arena could decide their fate in the competition.
