Arsenal Women Exit UWCL After Lyon Win

Arsenal Women entered the second leg of the semi‑final with a one‑goal advantage from a 2‑1 win at the Emirates, but a late goal from Jule Brand gave Lyon a 3‑1 victory and a 4‑3 aggregate win. Lyon’s early two‑goal lead and the return of world‑class players Selma Bacha and Melchie Dumornay were key factors in the French side’s triumph. Arsenal coach Renee Slegers admitted Lyon were the better team and expressed disappointment at the narrow defeat. mwafrika.life
