Arsenal Defeats Lyon in Women's Champions League
Arsenal faces multiple injuries ahead of their Champions League return leg in Munich. Trainer Mikel Arteta confirmed that Kai Havertz, Jurrien Timber, and Jakub Kiwior are unavailable for the match. Timber previously missed both legs of the quarter-final against Sporting Lisbon, which Arsenal won by a margin of at least one goal in each match. The team must remain focused to secure a place in the final. Arsenal has the chance to go six points clear of Manchester City in the Premier League. The team is playing Fulham at half past five. Manager Mikel Arteta acknowledged the emotional factors at this critical point of the season. German international Jula Brand scored late for Lyon, giving them a 3-1 lead over Arsenal. Lyon now leads the aggregate score 4-3. This puts the eight-time winners on track for another final.
