Hungarian minnows Debrecen are still awaiting their first point in the group phase of the Champions League after five games, but head coach Andras Herczeg isn't hopeful of his side breaking their duck in their final game against Olympique Lyon.

"We have enjoyed a lot of good experiences during this group stage. We have learnt a lot, and want to come back next year and do better," said Herczeg to uefa.com.

"We were the smallest team in the group and had nothing to lose. Lyon are probably going to win, but we will do our best to make it difficult despite the fact three key players won't be with us.

"In our last meeting with Lyon we had a bad start and then it was too hard to come back. We are proud of having played the Champions League. It was a pleasure."

Debrecen were beaten 4-0 in the home match against the French powerhouse on Matchday 2.
