A walk in the park for USWNT star Lindsey Horan! Lyon kick off Women's Champions League campaign in style with 9-0 away win over Slavia Prague

Six first half goals from Lyon told the story as Lindsey Horan and Co pummeled Slavia Prague into the pitch Tuesday evening. Kadidiatou Diani's first-half brace stole the show as the France international shined in her first WUCL game with the club. Horan, meanwhile, ran circles in the midfield while putting on a passing clinic.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Lyon managed seven different goal-scorers, with Diani and Vanessa Giles being the only multi-scorers with two. By the halftime whistle it was already 6-0 to the away side, and come the second half, a plethora of subs were made - with Horan among those being hooked.The USWNT midfielder left the pitch in the 69th minute, and although she didn't find herself on the scoresheet, Horan played an important role in the match with possession and tempo control in the center of the pitch.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

This is the second time Lyon have put nine goals past Slavia Prague in recent years, with the French side winning 9-1 in 2015. It's safe to say the 2021-22 European champions well in the hunt for their ninth title!

DID YOU KNOW?

The French side are back in action on November 17 with a league match against Dijon Foot before returning to UWCL action again the following week against SKN St. Polten on November 24.
