**Chelsea held off eight-time Champions League winners Lyon as the sides played out a 0-0 draw at Parc Olympique Lyonnais.**
The sides were meeting for the first time since the Blues knocked the holders out in a dramatic 2023 quarter-final, this time with former Lyon manager Sonia Bompastor in the visiting dugout.
After a cagey first half, the game opened up after the break but neither side could find a winner, with Lauren James missing a big chance and Hannah Hampton making a brilliant save from Ada Hegerberg in the closing stages.
For their dogged defence against a side who scored eight in their Champions League opener last week, Chelsea leave Lyon with a point from their most challenging league phase fixture.
