OL Lyon/PSG – Karchaoui rallies the team after the Champions League final | OneFootball

This Saturday, the women's teams of Paris Saint-Germain (4th in the Premier League) and OL Lyonnes (1st in the championship) faced off at Stade Félix Houphouët-Boigny in the final of the LFFP Cup 2025-2026. After the 0-1 defeat (video summary OL Lyonnes/PSG), captain Sakina Karchaoui (30-year-old midfielder/defender) spoke to PSG TV.

Karchaoui "everyone needs to improve and that's what we're doing."

A great match but inevitably some disappointment?

Yes, the goal was to win. We held on for a good part of the match. The first half was 0-0, and then after 10 minutes we conceded the goal that hurt us. We kept believing, the girls gave it their all, they didn't give up. Then, fatigue set in and by the 75th minute it was tougher. Today, to take a step forward, everyone needs to improve and that's what we're doing.

Karchaoui "We will work on that."

A great journey?

Yes, we did some great things. But ultimately, we lost 1-0. We will work on that. We won't forget the warm welcome and the experience, it's great. We would have preferred to finish with a victory, but that's how it is, there has to be a winner and a loser.
