On Wednesday, September 30, OL Lyon and Chelsea played to a 0-0 draw in the second round of the Women's Champions League. The match ended with both teams earning 4 points each, maintaining a balanced outcome. According to one report, Chelsea controlled the ball for much of the game, but OL Lyon defended strongly, preventing either side from finding the back of the net. Another report highlighted that OL Lyon had only 40% of possession in the first half, allowing Chelsea to dominate the ball, though they struggled to create clear scoring opportunities. In the first half, Sjoeke Nüsken had a weak shot from the left after a through ball from Alyssa Thompson, but it did not trouble goalkeeper Maria Luisa Grohs. The second half saw Lauren James appear to be fouled by Damaris Egurrola, but the referee ruled the penalty invalid after reviewing the incident, as James had stepped on Egurrola's foot. James had another chance later in the match but her shot was saved by Grohs in the 88th minute. In the 90th minute, Hannah Hampton had to leave the field after a challenge from Tabitha Chawinga. Despite the efforts of both teams, the match remained goalless, with OL Lyon extending their unbeaten run in the group stage to 26 matches. However, they were unable to score, leaving the match without a winner and maintaining the suspense for future encounters.
