Twenty-year-old Canadian center back, Kadeisha Buchanan, becomes the first Canadian woman to lift the Champions League Trophy. On June 1st, l’Olympique Lyonnais faced off against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final. Good friends from the Canadian women’s national soccer team, Ashley Lawrence of PSG and Kadeisha Buchanan of l’Olympique both had the opportunity of making history.
Very early on it seemed that Lyon would dominate the game throughout although PSG settled in right before the end of the half, creating some of their own chances. With both teams going somewhat back and forth with opportunities, the first half finished 0-0.
