Yes, you are reading that scoreline correctly - Lyon 1-5 Arsenal. The only English team to ever win the women’s Champions League recorded a historic night in France as they humbled the holders on their own turf.
Lyon were missing several key players such as Ada Hegerberg, Griedge Mbock and Caratine Macario, to name but a few. But Arsenal were also without their two starting centre backs in Leah Williamson and Rafaelle. The Gunners coped better.
This was their biggest win to date under manager Jonas Eidevall, who got his team selection and tactics spot on. Eyebrows were raised when star player Vivianne Miedema was named on the bench.
