<\/p>\nKadidiatou Diani (OL) congratulated by Damaris after her goal against Arsenal<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
Historically, OL Lyonnes have always succeeded against Arsenal. But the Londoners have changed dimension, and it is difficult to identify a clear favorite today.<\/h2>\n
The Lyonnaises are preparing to cross paths withArsenal<\/strong> in the Champions League semi-final. Or rather cross paths again. Because this clash will be the remake of last year’s semi-final. Like this season, the first leg took place in London. Thanks to goals from Kadidiatou Diana <\/strong>and Melchie Dumornay<\/strong>Joe’s players Montemurro<\/strong>the coach at the time, had won (1-2) and were in an ideal position before the return match at Parc OL. But the English had slapped Wendie Renard’s teammates in front of their supporters (1-4), thus qualifying for the second final in their history.<\/p>\n Since then, they have become European champions, defeating in the final the best women’s team of the decade, the FC Barcelona<\/strong> (1-0). The Rhone team has changed coaches. Exit Australian Joe Montemurro<\/strong>place for the architect of the Barcelona winning machine, Jonatan Giraldez<\/strong>. <\/p>\n OL Lyonnes and Arsenal<\/strong> have already crossed paths this season. During the first day of the Champions League, the Lyonnaises won at Meadow Park (1-2) thanks to a double from the inevitable Melchie Dumornay<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The force of habit, perhaps, because the Fenottes are still undefeated against Arsenal <\/strong>in England. On the other hand, they had taken on water, again in D\u00e9cines, in 2022, during the group phase. Victorious in the English capital (0-1), they lost very heavily in the first leg (1-5).<\/p>\n In total, the two teams have faced each other ten times in the Champions League, with Lyon winning seven times, one draw and two defeats. The eight-time European champions will have a lot to do on Sunday during the first leg (4:30 p.m.) but perhaps even more so, during the return match on Saturday May 2 at Parc OL (3 p.m.)*.<\/p>\n * Take advantage of our promotional offer of -50% on the SILVER category (\u20ac9 per seat instead of \u20ac18) with the code OLETLY<\/strong> to enter by clicking on this link.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Kadidiatou Diani (OL) congratulated by Damaris after her goal against Arsenal Historically, OL Lyonnes have always succeeded against Arsenal.
