Lyon have 20 UWCL goals and none against, the first side with three wins by six or more

OL Lyonnes needed half an hour to find a way through Juventus on Wednesday night in Biella. After that, the French side scored six, moved to the top of the Women's Champions League table and turned their league phase into something the competition has never seen: 20 goals scored, none conceded, and a third win by six or more in the same edition.

Juventus came in on the back of two straight Champions League wins and held firm until the 31st minute, when goalkeeper Daniëlle de Jong came off her line for a looping clearance and Marie-Antoinette Katoto put the loose ball into an empty net. The goal stood after a long VAR check for offside.

Katoto, the competition's leading scorer, added a second four minutes later. Melchie Dumornay made it 3-0 in the 40th minute, shrugging off two challenges after a backheel from Tabitha Chawinga and beating De Jong with her left foot.

Katoto thought she had a hat trick early in the second half, but the goal was ruled out for offside against Wassa Sangaré in the build-up. It barely mattered. U.S. international Lily Yohannes finished the rebound after Jule Brand hit the post in the 80th minute, substitute Korbin Shrader followed up a save from Salma Paralluelo's shot five minutes later, and captain Wendie Renard had her chipped penalty saved in stoppage time before poking in the rebound herself.

The gap was even wider than the score. Lyon took 24 shots worth 4.96 expected goals, according to beIN Sports; Juventus managed three shots worth 0.13.

The eight-time champions have now beaten Servette 8-0, Inter 6-0 and Juventus 6-0, with a 0-0 draw with Chelsea the only game they did not win. Per beIN Sports, no team had ever won three group or league-stage matches by a margin of at least six goals in the same edition.

The win put Lyon two points clear of defending champion Barcelona, the side that beat them in last season's final. Barcelona play their fourth league-phase game on Thursday, when they host Arsenal, the 2025 winners, in the night's biggest matchup.

A Barcelona win would take them back to the top by a point. Whatever happens, Lyon have set the standard for this season's league phase: four games, 20 goals, and nobody has scored against them yet.
