Lyon win fifth Women’s Champions League

Lyon continued their reign as Europe’s dominant women’s club side on Sunday, beating Wolfsburg 3-1 in the Champions League final to win the trophy for the fifth year running and a record-extending seventh time overall.

Goals from France striker Eugenie Le Sommer and Japan midfielder Saki Kumagai allowed Lyon to lead 2-0 at half-time in San Sebastian, and Icelandic midfielder Sara Bjork Gunnarsdottir’s late goal secured the trophy after Alexandra Popp had pulled one back for Wolfsburg.
