A goal. This is what separates Lyon and Paris at the kick-off of the Champions League semi-final return, Saturday April 30 (9:00 p.m.). Sonia Bompastor’s players got the better of Didier Ollé-Nicolle’s players last week at Groupama Stadium (3-2). A victory obtained thanks to Parisian defensive shortcomings underlined by a very poor performance from their goalkeeper Barbora Votikova, guilty of a gross error and a fault synonymous with a penalty.
But Paris, which had opened the score by Marie-Antoinette Katoto did not admit defeat. Heckled by extra-sporting problems within the group, the players were able to remain united and came back to a single goal for Lyonnaises. With the removal of the away goal rule, the Parisiennes know that they will have to win this match within 90 minutes to hope to see the final. A defeat or a match would automatically condemn the players from the capital and send OL to Juventus Stadium.
