Minutes later, Lyon had the last word thanks to Melchie Dumornay, well served by Kadidiatou Diani (0-3, 90+1′).
FC Nantes 0-0 FC Fleury
Nantes still has not won at home despite Kelly Gago being close to scoring but missing her face-to-face with the goalkeeper (73′). The Nantes women then evolved in numerical superiority after Mariam Diakité’s send-off (76′) but failed to make a difference.
