Girondins de Bordeaux and FC Fleury had a 1-1 draw. Marine Dafeur opened the score for the visitors at 76′, while Maëlle Garbino equalized minutes later (83′).
EA Guingamp won 2-1 against Rodez AF. Guingamp took the lead through an own goal (17′) but Rodez came back in the game thanks to Océane Saunier (27′). Anissa Lahmari scored the winning-goal for En-Avant from the penalty spot at 77′. With the same amount of points as Dijon, Rodez will likely survive relegation in the last round of the season.
Montpellier HSC won 2-1 against Le Havre AC. Despite opening the score thanks to Silke Demeyere (53′) and saving a penalty (65′), the visitors saw Montpellier take the points home. Maylis Mpome equalized at 78′ and Faustine Robert gave the win to her team in additional time (90+7′).
Paris FC won 5-2 against ASJ Soyaux. Ouleymata Sarr gave the tempo scoring three goals (20′, 33′, 66′) and crushing Soyaux’s hopes after Laura Bourgoin had equalized at 28′. Soyaux came back at 3-2 thanks to Morgane Belkhiter (72′) but Paris scored twice more through Clara Matéo (83′) and Mathilde Bourdieu (89′). This game sounds like a baroud d’honneur for Soyaux which will likely cease operations after this season.
Stade de Reims won 3-1 against Dijon FCO. Melchie Dumornay opened the score at 4′ but Malin Diaz answered at 52′. This look-alike 1-1 draw turned in favor of Reims, and Melchie Dumornay scored once again (69′), while Rofiat Imuran scored a third goal at 89′.
Olympique Lyonnais secured a 16th National Championship as they won 1-0 at Paris Saint-Germain in a dramatic finish. Former PSG player Signe Bruun gave the win to Lyon at 88′.
