Lyon vs Juventus Women's Champions League facts

Seven-time UEFA Women's Champions League winners Lyon must overcome a first-leg deficit after they were stunned by a dramatic Juventus comeback in their quarter-final opener in Turin.

• The French side struck first at the Juventus Stadium, the venue for this season's final, thanks to Catarina Macario's eighth-minute goal, but were unable to add to their lead before Ellie Carpenter's dismissal just after the hour and late goals from Cristiana Girelli (71) and substitute Agnese Bonfantini (83) earned a memorable Juve win.
