Manchester United preserved their perfect record in the UEFA Women's Champions League league phase with a 2-1 victory over Paris Saint-Germain at Old Trafford on Wednesday, while Barcelona edged ahead of Lyon at the top of the standings following a 3-0 win against OH Leuven. Bayern Munich staged a dramatic comeback to defeat Arsenal 3-2, and Juventus secured a 2-1 triumph over Atletico Madrid, as the competition's new format intensified the race for quarterfinal spots.

In Manchester, Marc Skinner's side marked their first European match at the iconic venue with a resilient performance against the French champions. PSG, seeking their first points after two defeats, started strongly, with Jennifer Echegini striking the post in the second minute. United grew into the contest and took the lead in the 31st minute when Melvine Malard outmuscled Griedge Mbock Bathy to latch onto Jayde Riviere's long pass and curled a shot past former United goalkeeper Mary Earps. The visitors equalized three minutes into first-half stoppage time through Olga Carmona's stunning 25-yard strike into the top corner, her first goal against England in the 2023 World Cup final.
