Arsenal face huge task after home loss to Lyon in Women's Champions League
"Lyon's high tempo and skilled attack proved too much for Arsenal, who couldn't convert their possession into goals, ultimately losing 2-1 in the semifinal's first leg."
"Despite dominating possession, Arsenal lacked the clinical finishing needed and succumbed to Lyon's relentless pressure, a stark contrast to their previous quarterfinal comeback against Real Madrid."
In the UEFA Women's Champions League semifinal first leg, Lyon edged Arsenal with a 2-1 victory at the Emirates. Kadidiatou Diani opened the scoring for Lyon, showcasing their swift and powerful offense. Arsenal, despite a stronger performance in the second half, missed crucial chances before Beth Mead equalized from a penalty. However, Lyon quickly regained the lead with Melchie Dumornay's counterattack goal. Arsenal faces a challenge as they must overcome a deficit in the second leg to advance.
