ARSENAL WOMEN LET TWO-GOAL LEAD SLIP IN DRAW WITH PARIS FC

WED 30 SEP 2026 W FOOTBALL

Arsenal Women drew 2-2 away to Paris FC in the Women's Champions League after leading 2-0. Paris FC scored twice during the second half to level the match and deny Arsenal a win that had appeared secure. The equaliser arrived late in the game, cancelling out Arsenal's two-goal advantage. The result leaves Arsenal with a single point from the fixture. Arsenal had led by two clear goals before Paris FC's comeback.

Accounts of how Paris FC's equaliser came about differ. One report said the goal followed a mix-up between Arsenal goalkeeper Misa Rodriguez and England captain Leah Williamson. Another report said the goal came from a penalty awarded for handball against Williamson in the 87th minute. Both versions place Williamson at the centre of the passage of play that led to the leveller. Williamson is referred to in coverage of the match as captain of the England team.

The draw forms part of a difficult run of results for Arsenal this season. According to one report, Arsenal have won only two of their opening six matches across all competitions. The match meant Arsenal failed to turn a 2-0 lead into three points in the Women's Champions League. No further details of Arsenal's upcoming Women's Champions League fixtures were included in the available coverage.
