the way. Two competitive
appearances yet yet to keep a
clean sheet fall aside from
France. She's booked up to
change this evening. We're
underway. Paris Saint Germain
possession. How else would you
be spending your Thursday
evening? Russian Champions League
football in Paris or with us
here on his own football. As
you've had to sit in the corner
into the box could be a wicked
ball. So as far as it is, it's
back across go. Can you ventus
find the finish? It's a real
scramble, but eventually it's
turned in. I want to start that
is for you, Ventus. Well, it was
looking like the impossible task
anyway for PSG. And well, it's
just got a whole lot more
difficult there. A real mess in
front of gold. Eventually
scrambled home. Mariam's not
happy with her side's defensive
display there. And early on in
this one, you ventus take the
lead. It looked to be Sophia
Cantori there who swung the
boots on it. Should be keeping a
close eye on proceedings in the
penalty area as his ball is
swinging. It's high once more
headed up and over the crossbar.
Never troubling Marius. Maybe
another let off for PSG.
Another half chance to PSG goes
begging. Another long ball.
That's a good one into the
penalty area. Chance to get the
shot and goal. It deflects.
And that was a chance. That was
a chance. Katoto did brilliantly
well to chest it down. Struck it
on the half fully. Out swinging
ball into the middle. It's
bubbling around. Chance to get
the shot in. Oh, you really feel
as though Albert could have done
better with that. It felt her
in the area. Maybe she just
rushed the effort, got under the
ball too much and put it high and
wide. It wasn't very handsome.
Long ball forward from Paris
Saint-Germain. Looks to find a
bit of an opening in behind the
Juventus defence. Out towards
the side where the home fans are
situated and still making a
racket. Into the penalty area
he goes. Can they find the cross?
Bubbles around. It's still not
cleared by Juventus. In the end
it's a penalty. And that's a
Thankfully, grass the ball to her
chest. That was almost a repeat
of what we saw in the first half.
Just rolls reverse. A bit of a
mosh pit going on in the stands
there. The home fans still in
high spirits. Despite the score
line. That could be a penalty.
That is a penalty. Never in doubt
for the referee. A clumsy
challenge. A twisting turn in
winding room from Katota. It's
been a real handful in the second
half. The outstretched leg from
Lenzini. I'm not too sure she can
have any complaints there.
Expecting. Cool as you like.
Smashed into the left hand corner.
The keeper gets the right way, but
you do not stop those. The home
fans have something to celebrate
and maybe a little bit of light
at the end of the tunnel for
Paris Saint-Germain.
Juventus looking to hit back.
1-1 the score. Could be a chance
here for Juventus from distance.
Hits the post and flashes across
goal. Well, for a second, I think
Mariam's thought she was going to
hear the net bulge behind her
there. A wicked effort from
Valentina Bergamaschi. Herbs at
full stretch. Cannons off the
inside of the post. Make sure you
check your local schedule for
timings, depending on where you
are. Juventus with the advantage
here. Could add to it as well.
Into the box it goes. Chips over
the goalkeeper. Much to Mariam's
relief. Goes wide. Vansgaard
protests. And maybe Herbs has
played her side into some trouble
here. Vansgaard wins it back.
Krumbegel swings it into the box.
Not going to find Garelli, who
was the only Juventus player
inside the penalty area. But a
lovely flick on there from
Garelli. Vansgaard just couldn't
angle the ball goalwards.
Bergamaschi once more. Chance to
get the ball into the middle.
Two blue shirts preventing her
from doing so. Seems a little bit
early to be trapping it in the
corner. She tries to break into
the box. The ball went through
the legs. Moving off and came
with it. Now Juventus maybe have
left themselves a little bit
vulnerable at the back. Kashawi
once more. Vansgaard switches
the play. It's a good ball, too.
Wicked dribble. Oh, it hits the
crossbar. For a second, I thought
that was dipping in, and I think
Paul Emmanuel might have thought
the same. The cross comes short.
It was a fizzed effort in. I
think she just saw the Juventus
goalkeeper step off her line.
Dudek has it for PSG. Kashawi
plays it forward. Gheorgui with
a good ball around the corner.
Could be a chance there. Into
the penalty area they go. Parried
away. No one there to follow up
on the rebound. Jennifer Oshengi
darted into the penalty area.
Had a decent sight on goal as
well. Hit it straight at Manon,
who had already gone to ground.
Did well just to stick a palm
out. Ball floated into the
penalty area. It's bobbling
around again. Juventus can't
clear it. Falls towards goal.
Kindly falls into the arms of
Manon once more. And again, it's
Katoto who was involved inside
the penalty area. A real mess at
the back. A few missed chances
to clear it, and Katoto just
sticks out a toe at it. Corner
kick to Juventus. Marriott just
issuing a few instructions out.
A cluster of bodies on the
penalty spot as it's drilled
towards the front post. The
header comes in, and that might
just seal it. A training ground
set piece from Juventus, and it
is a substitute. Barbara Benanti
with the header, flicks it
towards the far post. Smiles on
the faces of the travelling
support. Marriott was beaten, and
PSG may just be beaten. It's not
been for the lack of trying from
Paris Saint-Germain. It's been a
spirited performance. They've had
the chances, and they've been
fatal error by Martin Rueda, and
that is that Juventus into the
group stage of the Champions
League. A thoroughly professional
performance, a 3-1 win in the
first leg. But just look at those
celebrations. They came to Paris.
Nobody knows what to expect from
the Italian side. Will they
defend. In fact, it was the opposite. Within two minutes, they took the lead.
