Wolfsburg - Bayern 2-1

That's the Bundesliga decided.

Lyon had 9 players injured or ill... and played very very
badly. Arsenal scored almost all their oportunities while Lyon
had only 2 or 3 with wery weak shoots.

Maybe a too large score but totally deserved victory for a
strong Arsenal.

But, if Lyon plays Juventus like they played Arsenal, Juventus
will easily win.

Women's Champions League decided to go head to head with the boys. Some interesting results today:

Group A:
Real Madrid - Paris 0-0
Chelsea - Vllaznia 8-0

Paris now on 1 point after two matches.

Group B:
Slavia - Wolfsburg 0-2
St Polten - Roma 3-4

St Polten was leading 2-0 up to the 75th minute, then Roma scored 4 goals in the next 12.
Wolfsburg and Roma clear at the top of the table with 6 points

Tomorrow:
Group C: Juve-Lyon, Arsenal- FC Zurich
Group D: Rosengard-Barcelona, Benfica -Bayern

That was my fault. I tuned in in the 74th minute.

Juve held Lyon to a 1-1 draw at home. Despite all its absences, Lyon quite clearly dominated possession and found itself in a lot of good positions in and around the box. But their goal came off a blunder by the usually reliable Peyraud-Magnin, and other than that there weren't that many clear cut chances.

Juve equalized early in the second half after some good work by Bonansea in the box created enough panic to force Malard into an own goal. Respectable result for Juve, but probably not good enough for

Arsenal - FC Zurich 3-1

> > Group D: Rosengard-Barcelona, Benfica -Bayern

Rosengard - Barcelona 1-4 (no surprises here)
Benfica - Bayern 2-3 (Bayern was trailing until the 83rd minute, and needed an injury-time goal to get the three points. Nice bounce back for Benfica after their trashing last week by Barca, but not enough)

Nope. Haka easily qualify for the first round of the Europa Conference League Qualifiers, their first
European campaign since 2008-09.

Hopefully they get slaughtered by some Liechtensteinian outfit or something

Women's CL is on again today and tomorrow, for those who wish to fill a World Cup void.

About to start :
Arsenal-Juve
Bayern-Barcelona

Juve has managed to hold Lyon and Arsenal to draws at home, but they will likely need to win one of their two away matches to advance. Seems like a tall task, especially given their shaky form in the domestic league (trailing league leaders Roma by 6 points)

FT: Arsenal - Juve 1-0

Juve now needs to beat Zurich in the next round, and:
Arsenal beat OL --> a draw in Lyon is enough to advance
Arsenal-OL is a tie --> a draw in Lyon is enough if they beat Zurich by three clear goals
OL-beats Arsenal --> Need to win Lyon

Yes, a tall task.

Elsewhere: Bayern - Barca 3-1

Meanwhile, in the domestic Leagues, Wolfsburg and Bayern seem to be becoming even more dominant. Hoffenheim 0 Bayern 4, and Wolfsburg 5 Eintracht Frankfurt 0 at the weekend! Bayern overtake Eintracht Frankfurt and move up to 2nd. Turbine Potsdam are bottom of the table with 1 point. They're not going to get relegated are they?

And Lyon and PSG are as dominant as they already were in France. They're playing each other this weekend.

Why are all these matches (and some domestic men's matches) being played during the World Cup though!!?

On the weekend in Serie A:

Roma - Juventus 2-4

The match was played at Roma's 3 Fontane ground in front of a loud contingent of about 2,500 fans. Some fans (on both sides) were not too happy that the women's game seems to have imported some of the negative chants and attitude from the men's game. Meh...there's a nice rivalry building up between Roma and Juve, bring it on!

65 minutes in, at a snow-covered (and almost empty) Juventus Stadium:
Juve-Zurich 5-0

Lyon's goal quite clearly offside. Viv Miedema had to be carted off towards the end of the first half with what looked a lot like an ACL injury :-(

Juve will now have to win in Lyon to advance to the knockout round. Not gonna happen.

The other club from Paris (I think they're just called Paris) are doing well this season; they're 3rd. And Montpellier are 4th.

And in Germany Turbine Potsdam go into the belated mid-season break bottom of the table with 1 point. Eintracht Frankfurt hanging in there in 3rd place at the moment.

0-0. Close, but no cigar.

Quarterfinalists will be

ENG: Arsenal, Chelsea
GER: Bayern, Wolfsburg
FRA: PSG, Lyon
ITA: Roma
ESP: Barcelona

Can we say 'Top 5 Leagues'?

But it's indeed looking very much like the men's game.
