The step is still too high for Paris FC to hope to catch up with Lyon. The clash of the two undefeated players (5 wins in five games before this confrontation) was won by OL against the Parisians who have changed dimension since their elimination of Arsenal and Wolfsburg in the Champions League. But this Sunday evening, Lyon, with its offensive power and its XXL bench, was still far too strong.
The November 2022 confrontation where Paris FC led 2-1 until 20 minutes from the end before losing 2-3, was even closer. In terms of fervor in the stands, it had nothing to do either. But the late schedule of the match didn’t help. “In the afternoon, we could have had more children,” lamented Paris FC, which will only launch its free operation at Charléty for L1 and D1 Arkema matches from next week.
But Eugénie Le Sommer immediately raised the mood by scoring a sumptuous goal with a sequence, sombrero and volley (0-1, 1st). Paris FC was then playing with ten players. Julie Dufour being in fact still on the edge touches her while waiting for the referee, who had asked her to change her cut socks, to signal her to return.
Eugénie Le Sommer’s record
Despite this initial blow, Paris FC came back into the match and upset the Lyonnaises. New international Julie Dufour, scorer in her last five matches, rewarded her team’s good performance by beating Endler in two stages to equalize (1-1, 28th). If the PFC then had a big highlight, Lyon was clinical by breaking away in two minutes through Hegerberg (1-2, 38th) after a lot of work from Kadidiatou Diani, then a recovery from Le Sommer (1-3 , 40th).
With now 224 goals, Eugénie Le Sommer beats the “unofficial” women’s D1 record previously held by Laetitia Tonazzi (223). Just unofficial, because due to lack of official statistics at the time, several goals would not have been counted for Tonazzi…
After Le Sommer’s double, Hegerberg also scored his double (1-4, 48th). If Paris FC does not give up and finds the bar in quick succession through Dufour and Théa Gréboval (54th), Lyon gives even more brilliance to its success through Däbritz (1-5, 68th) and Dani (1-6, , 90th).
Despite a good thirty minutes in the first period, Paris FC suffered its heaviest defeat since January 22, 2021. It was already against Lyon (0-5).
