Women's Champions League: PSG win easily at Breidablik – Foot – C1 (F)

After this round of 16 first leg, Paris can calmly look towards the next round. The return leg, October 31, at home, should confirm what we saw in this first opposition. To know that the formation of Olivier Échouafni is clearly superior to his opponent, the most successful women's team of Iceland. For this meeting, Échouafni had spared some of his usual holders (Diani, Dabritz, Geyoro, Paredes) and had lined up a hybrid team on Breidablik's artificial turf.

Three goals in 19 minutes

Serious and tough, teammates Nadia Nadim, who had recovered the armband in the absence of Paredes, quietly swept their modest opponents by scoring three goals in less than twenty minutes in the first period. The Brazilian Formiga (41) is involved in the first two: as a shipper for Saevik, author of his first goal for Paris, first (10th), then as scorer after a corner of Sandy Baltimore that she took the lead at the back post without being worried (18th). The third Parisian performance is signed by Marie-Antoinette Katoto (29), who has been one goal per game since the beginning of the season with PSG, having scored 8 goals in 8 games. At the end of the match, Paulina Dudek scored a fourth goal after a corner (90 + 2).

Olivier Échouafni even allowed himself to continue his membership review by leaving Katoto at halftime, replacing her by the young Canadian Jordyn Huitema (18). Lina Boussaha (20) also had playing time when she replaced Nadia Nadim (70). Then Lea Khelifi (also 20) replaced Baltimore (76).

Paris has perfectly negotiated this first round and can now focus on another big goal of the season, the Championship. After winning the first derby of the season against FC Fleury last Saturday (2-0), PSG has a meeting on Saturday (8:45 pm) with Paris FC. An opponent that looks much tougher.
