OL Lyonnes’ rampant start, but Jonatan Giraldez warns they have done nothing yet

OL Lyonnes have opened the season in relentless form, scoring 22 goals across three matches, and now turn to the Champions League against Servette FC on Wednesday at 18:45.

According to L'Équipe, one sign of the women’s game’s development is the decline in runaway scorelines that were common only a few years ago.

In France and across Europe, OL Lyonnes have repeatedly dished out heavy defeats, bolstering their reputation as a ruthless powerhouse. That trend might not be over.

Their 7-1 victory over Paris FC on 12 September featured a brace from Melchie Dumornay.

The task now is to carry that firepower into Europe.
