We could have expected a surprise match from the Parisian but Lyon's pace was much too strong.
The conditions of the lawn did not help the match. While the Charlety Stadium had more than 2000 spectators!
The 2 formations were waiting for this confrontation and she did not disappoint! Indeed, while the first 15 minutes of unmistakable intensity saw a Lyonnaise domination appear, Paris reacted constructively but without being able to finish their actions, the Lyon defense being on the lookout for each balloon!
The first goal of Camille Abily, which was not marked by any players, the Parisian then began to undergo the match!
Schelin doubles a goal on the head, from a Norwegian player's center, Ada Hegerberg!
After losing its place in the Champions League, Lyon wanted to score the blow by attacking strong from the beginning of the match against the Parisian!
The Parisians narrowly miss their ball award which has spurned many actions.
Lyonnaise did not go four ways during this match by asserting their leading position without fearing the Parisian.
This is how former Parisian Elise Bussaglia made a magnificent free kick in the middle of the 57th minute.
And as in a momentum Dickenmann took the opportunity to score the 4th goal against Katarzyna Kiedrzynek who comes out on injury.
We can believe that the Parisian are already planning in the Champions League but this match was as important to win as their next face to Glasgow, March 22 and March 28 at home.
The exit of Kiedrzynek after the 4th goal, was the end of the match for PSG.
A Parisian team that has a huge potential but has much less playing time together than the Lyon team that does not change its good dynamics of play and its players, except the recruitment of the prodigious Ada Hegerberg who quickly found his place at OL.
Lyon has a rhythm and a strategy of flawless play that has left no opportunity for PSG ...
Let's hope that this match is an opportunity for the Parisians to raise their level and to assert themselves in the Champions League.
For OL alone Guingamp will be an opponent to beat at all costs to consolidate their position of strength in this championship of D1!
OL and PSG interviews
Gérard Prêcheur:
"We had prepared well for this match, the players were extraordinary, but I would also like to thank my staff for doing a great job, the playing plan was respected with a nice percussion on the sides."
Lotta Schelin:
"We're happy, it was a big game, we fought, I'm very proud, we had a great game producing the game, it's beautiful, we've been shown to be a very big team. Revanchardes Elimination in the European Cup was a failure, but tonight was another context and there was no spirit of revenge.
Farid Benstiti (Coach Paris Saint-Germain)
"There is no excuse. At high level, we take goals but we could have reversed the match. We must have more humility, fighting on all the balloons. You have to know how to be solid in the strong moments of the opponent because it is not anyone in front. Against Lyon we can not afford the slightest mistake. 4-0 is very hard, but it's not unimportant given the team's performance today. "
Laura Georges (Defender of Paris Saint-Germain)
"The Lyonnaises deserve their 4-0 because they dominated. We had some good times but we did not score. This is our concern since the beginning of the season. Lyon was realistic. They hold their revenge in a way. We did not know how to respond in the duels, or tactically, it's a shame. These are areas of work for the future. We must finish the championship and focus on the Champions League coming. It's a nice competition for the club. "
Camille Abily (Midfielder Lyon, at the microphone of Eurosport)
"I think the difference compared to the other matches played against Paris this season was that Paris had to go out to score two goals and that it created spaces. We have been very efficient. "
