Lieke Martens scored twice (17th, 48th), with a second goal in response to Lisa Fjeldstad Naalsund (57th). Sandy Baltimore finished the job (57th).

Goal disallowed for Manchester United
With a header, Leah Galton sends the ball into the back of the net but a foul is called in the penalty area, which allows PSG to clear. The Englishwoman had outstripped Kiedrzynek in the air.

It’s the break, PSG leads 1-0
Thanks to Lieke Martens, PSG is virtually qualified for the group stage (which Paris FC has just joined).

Toone shakes the Park (1-0)
Toone, well offset by Geyse, attempts a cross shot while she has a good angle to send the ball into the small inside net. The attempt does not find the frame. It’s a good reminder for PSG. if(typeof(dstb)!= “undefined”) dstb();
