    Camavinga's brother, young Lyon U21 star, completes Ligue 1 debut with substitution

    Camavinga's brother, who is also a talented footballer, has made his Ligue 1 debut for Lyon's U21 team on Saturday evening.

    The youngster, who is just 17 years old and already playing at the highest level of French youth football, was handed his first senior appearance by coach Lucien Favre in the match against Paris Saint-Germain.

    Despite being only 17, Camavinga showed great promise as he played the full 90 minutes, earning himself a standing ovation from the home crowd after scoring a goal in the second half.

    The goal came after Lyon had taken the lead through Adama Traore, but it was not to be Camavinga's day as he was replaced in the final minute of the game.

    Despite missing out on the start of his senior career, Camavinga's performance suggests that he could have a bright future ahead of him at Lyon.

    It will be interesting to see how the youngster develops over the coming seasons, and whether he can make a breakthrough into the first team at some point in the future. For now, however, he can take pride in completing his Ligue 1 debut and showing that he has what it takes to succeed at the highest level of French football.
