**UEFA Women's Champions League**
---------------------------------
Lyon came from behind to draw 3-3 with Juventus in a rollicking affair. Juventus burst to a three-goal first-half advantage, leading to a scarcely believable half-time score. However, Lyon came roaring back in the second half, with a penalty to Wendie Renard equalising the game in the final minute of regulation time. Lyon thought they scored a winner five minutes later but it was denied. **Teagan Micah** was an unused substitute for Lyon.
Arsenal were also forced to come from behind to defeat Real Madrid 2-1. Alessia Russo's second-half brace helped put the Gunners into the qualification spots heading into the international break. **Steph Catley** and **Kyra Cooney-Cross** started for Arsenal while **Caitlin Foord** was a second-half substitute.
AS Roma secured their first point of the UWCL group stage, drawing 1-1 with OH Leuven. Roma scored first thanks to Canadian Evelyne Viens, before Leuven equalised in the second half. **Winonah Heatley** was not in the matchday squad for Roma.
Finally, a first-half **Ellie Carpenter** goal saw Chelsea draw 1-1 with Barcelona. Chelsea took the lead thanks to the stunning solo strike before Ewa Pajor equalised for Barcelona. Carpenter started and played the full game, while **Sam Kerr** was unavailable for Chelsea as she continues to have her minutes managed.
