Lyon continued their superb start to this season's Champions League with a 6-0 thrashing of Juventus, which took them top of the league-stage standings.
With Barcelona – the side that beat them in last season's final – not playing their fourth game until Thursday, when they take on Arsenal, Lyon seized their chance to move top of the standings.
They initially had to be patient, with Juventus defending their area well until the floodgates opened in the 31st minute. Martina Lenzini's attempted clearance looped high into the air, and with Danielle de Jong forced to come off her line in a doomed attempt to claim the loose ball, Marie-Antoinette Katoto's downward volley bounced into an empty net.
That goal survived a lengthy VAR check for a possible offside, and when play resumed, Katoto quickly added a second in the 35th minute. Lily Yohannes' attempted cutback was only half cleared, and though Jule Brand failed to bring the ball under her spell, it took a fortunate deflection through to Katoto, who slotted home.
It was 3-0 within five further minutes, as Estela Carbonell's poor pass across her own backline put Juve in trouble. Tabitha Chawinga cleverly flicked the ball into Melchie Dumornay, who shrugged off a couple of challenges before powering past De Jong.
Katoto thought she had completed her hat-trick early in the second half, only for Wassa Sangare to be ruled offside in the build-up, but Lyon went 4-0 up with 10 minutes to play. Brand's lovely strike clattered off the near post but rebounded straight to Yohannes, who took a touch before finishing.
And there was still time for Lyon to add two more goals late on. Substitute Korbin Shrader pounced on the rebound of Salma Paralluelo's drive to make it 5-0, before Kysha Sylla's handball gifted Lyon a 91st-minute penalty.
Captain Wendie Renard saw her attempted Panenka saved by De Jong, but the Juve goalkeeper could not gather the ball cleanly, and Renard reacted to prod over the line.
Lyonnes roar again
With Juventus winning back-to-back Champions League games coming into this one, many expected the record eight-time champions Lyon to face a difficult test.
Instead, they laid down another marker of their quality, accumulating 24 shots and 4.96 expected goals (xG), compared to a paltry three shots and 0.13 xG for Juve.
Lyon have now scored 20 goals in this season's Champions League without conceding any, having also routed Servette 8-0 and Inter 6-0 (also a 0-0 draw with Chelsea).
They are the first team to ever win three group or league-stage matches by a margin of at least six goals in the same edition.
And though Lyon have goals throughout their side, Katoto has been one of their chief threats, and she has now scored in all five of her Champions League games against Italian sides (seven goals in total), having also netted a brace versus Inter on matchday three this season.
