This Saturday (3 p.m.), OL Lyonnes hosts Arsenal for the Champions League semi-final return leg. With their backs against the wall after the 2-1 defeat at the Emirates Stadium, Wendie Renard and her teammates are counting on the support of the supporters at Parc OL.
There were just over 25,000 last Sunday at the Emirates Stadium. The attendance had been down compared to that twelve months ago, but Arsenal wanted to take advantage of this support to gain an advantage. By winning 2-1 at home, the Gunners are in a favorable position when they travel to Décines this Saturday (3 p.m.) for the semi-return of the Champions League. However, by only being one goal behind, OL Lyonnes has not said its last word and can still return to the final of the European competition, two years after its last participation. For this, the Lyon club hopes to see a rather well-stocked OL Park. In April 2025, 20,045 spectators took their seats in the enclosure.
Suspense, a Saturday at 3 p.m.
Michele KangVincent Ponsot and the players ofOL Lyonnes hope that this bar will be crossed for this decisive match. This Wednesday, four days before the meeting, the bar of 15,000 places had been crossed, according to our information. The eight-time European champion club hopes that the undecided will finally be convinced to go to the stadium to fill Parc OL and reverse the trend of this Champions League match.
At the microphone ofOlympique-et-LyonnaisWendy Renard also sent a message. “When you saw our quarter against Wolsfburg, I think there were many who appreciated it, who came for the first time. I just want to say to them ‘come and support us, we will need you, it will come down to details, but your strength is important for us on the pitch, every minute. Plus, it’s a Saturday, at 3 p.m., the weather will be nice, I hope. So come with your children, your husbands, your wives, we will need it.’ “
