The Whites drew against Paris FC and remain unbeaten in the Women's Champions League.
Real Madrid claimed a point against Paris FC in their third match of the Women's Champions League, which was played at the Di Stéfano. The French side took the lead through Azzaro from the penalty spot (40'), but Weir made it 1-1 in the dying moments of the game. Pau Quesada's side are now unbeaten in 13 games (11 wins and two draws) and have seven points from a possible nine in Europe.
Real Madrid bossed the first half and had the best chances. The clearest one came after a wonderful piece of play from Linda Caicedo. The Colombian cut inside and dribbled past several opponents in the box, but her shot crashed against the post. Feller, Däbritz and Redondo also had their chances. However, after going close to making it 1-0 on several occasions, the Madridistas found themselves a goal down on the stroke of half-time. Angeldahl brought down Scott in the area, the referee pointed to the spot and Azzaro converted the spot-kick (40').
After the restart, the match became a back-and-forth affair, with chances at both ends. Chavas denied Linda the equaliser with a sublime save and then stopped Weir's shot. However, the Scot managed to beat the visiting goalkeeper in the last attack of the game, latching onto a loose ball in the area to make it 1-1. The Madridistas must now turn their attention to Saturday's league Clásico (4 pm CET).
