Already assured of finishing at the top of Group A before this last day of the group stage of the Women’s Champions League, OL still knew how to make their status speak for themselves. The Fenottes managed to beat VfL Wolfsburg at Groupama Stadium (1-0). A sixth victory in as many C1 matches this season for the Lyonnaises. Discover Joe Montemurro’s player ratings in this article.
Christiane Endler spent a very quiet evening at Groupama Stadium. There was only one shot on target for VfL Wolfsburg. The Olympique Lyonnais goalkeeper only stood out with a kick in the 35th minute and a quiet save at the start of the second half.
This right corridor still works just as well on the OL side. Ellie Carpenter was not really worried in this meeting. The right side was, as always, able to be very active. She also releases a dangerous ball at the end of the match.
Vanessa Gilles was very solid in this meeting. She left nothing to the opposing attackers. She won a lot of duels, like in the 12th, 17th, 35th or 55th.
Just like Vanessa Gilles, Wendie Renard was not put in great difficulty within the central hinge. The Fenottes captain is in the right place at the half-hour mark to clear a ball in front of her defense. She also made a nice interception at the start of the second half.
Even if she was unable to stand out on the offensive corners, Wendie Renard still contributed on a few attacks. She makes a very nice deep pass at the end of the first period. It is also she who offers a nice opening on Kadidiatou Diani at the end of the match. Be careful, however, of losing the ball in the final moments.
The day after her extension, Selma Bacha celebrated with a tenure. Present in the left lane, the tricolor side produced a nice festival at the very start of the match (6th). She intercepted another dangerous ball four minutes later. She won another important duel in front of the area in the first period (19th). Sofie Svava (NN) takes his place for the last 20 minutes.
We expected a little more from Lindsey Horan in this meeting, especially in the offensive phases. However, she only had one acrobatic return, a little too soft, to stand out (14th). We then saw him throw Kadidiatou Diani five minutes before the break, but that was almost it. Daniëlle van de Donk (NN) takes his place for the last 20 minutes. She scored the only goal of this meeting, thanks to a madjer blocked.
His aerial game is still valuable. Damaris Egurrola, however, had a little more difficulty in the construction. She sometimes slowed down the game a little or too often played backwards.
In the midfield, Dzsenifer Marozsan was not very successful. She almost failed in everything she did. Ten minutes before the break, she made a poor check. In the process, she makes a pass that is not in the right tempo. She loses another ball just after returning from the locker room. Sara Däbritz (NN) takes his place for the last half hour.
Kadidiatou Diani still had a great meeting. His defensive contribution should be highlighted. The French winger did not skimp on her efforts, with an incalculable number of returns. In front of goal, she also knew how to make the difference. It was from her that the opening score came (81st). She performs a nice festival before crossing for Daniëlle van de Donk, who sees her madjer deflected into the German goal.
This evening was complicated for Ada Hegerberg. The Fenottes attacker didn’t have much to eat. Apart from a pass that was a little too soft in the area (31st), the Norwegian was unable to stand out. She left her place Eugénie Le Sommer (NN) for the last half hour.
In this meeting, Tabitha Chawinga was able to show her speed on numerous occasions. She was able to put the opposing defense in great difficulty. However, she was unable to tell the difference, despite several centers. Vicki Becho (NN) took his place for the last ten minutes.
