• Olympique de Lyon wins the final of the San Sebastián Women’s Champions League against Wolfsburg 3-1.
• For the French, it is the fifth consecutive victory of the WCL.
• Lara Dickenmann was not used by the “Wölfinnen”.

Olympique Lyon’s dominance in European women’s football continues. For the French, it was the seventh win since the competition changed its name in the 2009/10 season and the fifth in a row.

In the first half, Lyon headed for victory. Eugénie Le Sommer (25th) and Saki Kumagai (44th) gave the series winners a 2-0 lead.

Dickenmann without compromise

Thanks to Alexandra Popp, the “wolves” were reduced to 1: 2 in the 58th minute. After that, Lyon gained the narrow lead and made the decision shortly before the end of the game with the goal of Sara Björk Gunnarsdottir (88th ).

Lara Dickenmann sat on the Wolfsburg bench for 90 minutes. The record-breaking Swiss player continues to seek shape after a torn cruciate ligament.

The final of the Women’s Champions League did not take place entirely without the participation of Switzerland. The match was led by referee Esther Staubli.
