Groupama Stadium : record d‘affluence pour un match féminin en France !

With 25,907 fans in the stands, Olympique Lyonnais set an attendance record for a women's football match in France and took a huge step closer to an unprecedented 13th straight D1 Féminine title.

It's a match that will long live on in the memory of Lyon fans! In addition to an incredible 5-0 thrashing of PSG that left OL on the footsteps of an unprecedented 13th consecutive D1 Féminine title, Saturday's spectacle also made another kind of history. That's because the 25,907 fans at Groupama Stadium set an attendance record for a women's football match in France.

The previous record was established in June 2016 during an international match between France and Greece, with 24,835 spectators in the stands. In addition, Saturday's attendance shattered the previous OL Women's records for Champions League (22,050 fans against PSG, in April 2016) and D1 Féminine matches (12,263 fans against Guingamp, in October 2011).
