Summary
OL Lyonnes continued their dominant start to the Ligue 1 season with an emphatic 8-1 victory over Le Havre on Friday, extending their tally to 22 goals across three matches. Jonatan Giraldez's side remain unbeaten and appear on course for another title, though the scoreline will be remembered chiefly for a historic first: the match saw Ligue 1's inaugural VAR decision when a penalty was awarded in the 30th minute after a Jule Brand cross was deflected by a Le Havre defender. Ada Hegerberg converted from the spot.
