OL won 1-0 against Paris SG at the Parc des Princes on Sunday, their second victory in the Women’s Championship in as many matches, thanks to a goal from Eugénie Le Sommer, in a match rich in intensity and opportunities .
Lyon is second in the standings on goal difference behind Paris FC, while PSG is in 5th place. The Lyonnaises took the lead in the 20th minute thanks to a free kick taken from midfield by Bacha towards Egurrola, at the far post. The midfielder headed back from the penalty spot and Le Sommer sprang to slide the ball into the net with the flat of his right foot.
With this new goal, Eugénie Le Sommer confirms her excellent start to the season with three goals in as many matches after that against Le Havre (4-0 victory) on the first day of D1 and during the 2-0 victory against PSG in Champions Trophy.
The big return to the Parc des Prince, the lair of PSG, of number 9 Marie-Antoinette Katoto, who entered the game in the 76th minute after her serious knee injury 14 months ago and who played again against Bordeaux during the first day, changed nothing in the score. However, the Parisiennes were not unworthy, like their wingers: Baltimore was very impactful with a low strike repelled by Endler (65th) and Malawian striker Tabitha Chawinga scored her first with a first shot on target (4th) and great runs forward to bring danger (12th, 29th).
But they failed against the rampart Endler, the Lyon goalkeeper. Lyon striker Bacha sounded the alarm (17th) with a powerful strike 30 meters from the goal, full axis, deflected by a nice tap from Picaud on the crossbar. The reunion was more painful for Kadidiatou Diani: the striker transferred from PSG to Lyon this summer was transparent and replaced under the whistles of the Parc (62nd) where the supporters had unfurled a banner “You leave for the money, we stay by love.
The player filed a complaint in June for sexual assault against her former PSG coach Didier Ollé-Nicole, who has since been the subject of an investigation. In the aisles of the stadium, at the start of the match, the PSG ultras also brandished a banner reading “Paris against discrimination and recovery”, while homophobic chants coming from Parisian supporters were heard during the PSG-OM match. in league 1, September 24.
For his first on the bench, PSG coach Jocelyn Prêcheur, successor to his father, Gérard Prêcheur, who left his post on Thursday for “personal reasons”, did not find the ingredients.
