Lyon defeated Wolfsburg 4-1 here to win a third consecutive UEFA Women's Champions League title and their fifth overall, a new record for the competition. The 90 minutes of regulation time between the two powerhouses of women's club football in Europe -- this was the third time they played each other in the final -- offered little in the way of excitement on Thursday, reports Efe. Both of their previous meetings were tight. Wolfsburg won 1-0 in the 2013 final, while Lyon prevailed on penalties in 2016, so nobody was surprised when the match went into extra time. What was a pleasant surprise for the fans at Kiev's Valeriy Lobanovskyi Stadium was the ensuing offensive explosion. After emphasising defence in regulation, Wolfsburg shifted gears to take a 1-0 lead with Pernille Harder's goal in the 93rd. But the German side's euphoria was short-lived, as they found themselves down to 10 players after Alexandra Popp was sent off for a second yellow card. Amandine Henry equalised for Lyon in the 98th minute and the French club pulled ahead a minute later on a goal by Eugenie Le Sommer, assisted by late sub Shanice van de Sanden, who also contributed to Ada Hegerberg's strike in the 103rd minute to put the side up 3-1. Camille Abily, playing in her record 81st Champions League match, added a fourth goal in the 116th minute. Hegerberg also made history, setting a new mark for the most goals in a Women's Champions League campaign with 15 goals.

Warner's 70 not out lifted Hyderabad to 159/6 in 20 overs. In reply, opener Vohra single-handedly took Punjab on the brink of victory but his 50-ball knock, featuring nine fours and five sixes, couldn't prevent the visitors from being bowled out for 154 in 19.4 overs. Bhuvneshawar starred with the ball, getting five wickets for 19 runs in four overs to keep Punjab at bay as Hyderabad managed to end a two-match losing run at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium.
