Lyon stunned in Coupe de France Feminine as European giants - who have won 9 out of 11 previous tournaments - suffer shock last-16 exit on penalties to Fleury

The Lyon women's side are among the best teams in Europe having conquered the Women's Champions League title a record eight times. They have also dominated the French domestic scene as they have won the Division 1 Feminine title on 16 occasions and have lifted the Coupe de France Feminine title 10 times with nine of those coming in the last 11 years.

On Saturday, they crashed out of the Coupe de France Feminine semi-final after they suffered a shock defeat against Fleury in the penalty shootout. Fleury managed to hold the giants to a goalless draw in 120 minutes and then clinched the game in the tie-breaker by winning it 5-4.

While Sonia Bompastor's side have been knocked out of the domestic cup competition, they are on course to win yet another league title as they are currently sitting at the top of the table, seven points clear of second-placed Paris Saint-Germain.

Since the 2006/07 season, Lyon have won the Division 1 Feminine title every year except for the 2020/21 season when Paris Saint-Germain pipped them by a point to bag the trophy.

Les Fenottes will aim to seek revenge as they are all set to meet Fleury again on Friday in an important league clash.
