- Paris FC knocked Arsenal out on pens
- Also defeat Wolfsburg
- Look to carry this form into Division 1 Feminine
WHAT HAPPENED? Sandrine Soubeyrand's team, who also beat Arsenal back in September, secured the 5-3 win on aggregate this evening to knock last year's finalists Wolfsburg out of the competition.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Julie Dufour opened the scoring in the 38th minute, after Gaetane Thiney missed her penalty in the opening moments of the clash.
It wasn't the only missed spot-kick in the fixture, with Wolfsburg's Dominique Janssen also missing in the second-half following a stunning save from Nigeria World Cup star, Chiamaka Nnadozie. Louise Fleury was able to seal the victory for the French side in the 90th minute. The club have now secured their spot in the UWCL group stages for the first time since they rebranded to Paris FC in 2017.
