The Parisiennes hold their first win of the season in the Champions League. Only fourteenth of the 18 teams entered before the match against Benfica (2-0), PFC rose to 10th position, ahead of the continuation of the C1 league phase on day 4, Thursday.
Paris was persecuted. Goalkeeper Mylène Chavas won her head-to-head with Cristina Martin-Prieto (18th). Caroline Moller’s two yellow cards in three minutes helped get Paris FC back on track. In numerical superiority, the capital club scored before halftime thanks to youngster Maeline Mendy (18 years), who was well served in the penalty area by Anaële Le Moguédec.
Positive dynamics
The latter stands out again at the hour mark. Everywhere, the midfielder focused on the head of Maëlle Garbino, who came on at the break to replace the first goalscorer. The attacker did not miss the opportunity to break (62).
This is a new positive result following the news of the draw against Real Madrid (1-1) last week. Parisiennes again competed to enter the Top 12, qualifying for the play-offs to reach the quarterfinals. They meet up north against Valerenga Oslo on December 10.
Earlier this Wednesday, Lyon dropped their first points in this league phase. Winning in their first three matches, OL Lyonnes was able to overcome a three-goal deficit to hold off Juventus Turin (3-3) thanks to the achievements of Tabitha Chawinga (60), Marie-Antoinette Katoto (79) and Wendie Renard (90, sp).
