Olympique Lyonnais, winner of Benfica 5-0, Bayern, who slapped Hacken 4-0, and Arsenal, executioner of Hoffenheim on the same score, scored on Thursday for the second day of the Women's Champions League, while Barça got rid of HB Koge 2-0.

The Lyonnaises chained a second large victory after their debut in Sweden (3-0), at home against Benfica Lisbon.

Constant pressing allowed them to open the scoring in the 29th minute, never to let go of their prey.

Their main opponent in Group D, Bayern Munich also played on their home ground, taking the advantage very early on with a double from Schuller (8th, 11th) before adding salt to the bill by Sallman (70th) and Damnjanovic (90th + 1).

The players of Sonia Bompastor keep the head of the group with 6 points, in front of Bayern (4 pts) and Benfica, third and a very small point in front of Hacken-Göteborg, dead last (0).

In Group C, Barça, despite a clear domination before the break, came up against a Danish formation organized to defend and which proved to be the most dangerous in the counterattack.

But Catalan pressure ended up paying off by Rolfo (63rd) in a one-sided second period.

Hermoso then did justice by transforming a logical penalty (90th + 5).

The Catalan club retains the first place.

In the group's other match, Arsenal inflicted a heavy defeat on Hoffenheim (4-0) and scored their first points after an initial rout in Barcelona (4-1), to move up to second place.
