Caroline Weir scored a dramatic late goal for Real Madrid to salvage a 1-1 draw with Paris FC in the Women’s Champions League on Tuesday, when Lyon defeated fellow heavyweight Wolfsburg 3-1.
Weir scored in the eighth minute of stoppage time — there were only supposed to be six — to deny Paris another win in Madrid with the visitors desperately trying to hold on after Lorena Azzaro had scored a penalty before the break.
The French team had won 1-0 with a penalty in 2023, when it completed home and away wins over the Spanish club.
Norway star Ada Hegerberg scored twice in Lyon’s win, while Catarina Macario and Sam Kerr both scored twice in Chelsea’s 6-0 rout of tournament debutant St. Polten. Wieke Kaptein and an own goal from Lisa Ebert completed the scoring in Austria.
Earlier, Norwegian club Valerenga defeated Roma 1-0 for their first win in the competition.
The Spanish side dominated the opening half-hour with Linda Caicedo hitting the crossbar after working her way through a host of defenders, and goalkeeper Mylène Chavas denying an effort from Naomie Feller.
But Filippa Angeldahl was penalized for a foul on substitute Sheika Scott and Azzaro dispatched Paris’ penalty in the 41st.
The home team’s frustration grew as their second-half pressure failed to yield a dividend with Caicedo drawing a good save from Chavas, who went on to make more stops. Goalkeeper Misa Rodríguez was booked after complaining about a questionable referee’s decision.
Weir finally made a chance count at the last when she squeezed the ball past the otherwise faultless Chavas.
“The performance was decent enough. We just couldn’t get the ball in the back of the net,” the Scotland star told ESPN.
