ADVANTAGE LYON
Three goals in six minutes sealed a remarkable comeback for Lyon who defeated Paris Saint-Germain 3-2 in the first leg of the UEFA Women's Champions League semi-final.
Two goals from Marie-Antoinette Katoto either side of half time gave the visitors a convincing lead over their domestic rivals and eight-time winners.
Both sides have met at this stage of the competition on three occasions before today, and Lyon have won every game.
They made sure to maintain that record with a barrage of goals in the last 10 minutes of the game.
Former PSG star Kadidiatou Diani scored first before goals from Melchie Dumornay and Amel Majri sealed the victory.
