Sawt Falasteen - Wolfsburg earn key win over Roma in Women's Champions League, Lyon net six

Four goals inside the final 25 minutes from Sveindis Jonsdottir secured Wolfsburg second spot in Group A as they moved three points ahead of Roma and boast a better head-to-head record against the Italians.

On matchday one, the Romans won 1-0 against Wolfsburg in Italy but now have a superior record thanks to their heavy win at home.

The Germans next face leaders Lyon in the final round of group-stage matches on December 17, but with nothing at stake.

The French side have a perfect five wins from five after their 6-0 demolition of bottom side Galatasaray and sit six points clear in the group.

In Germany, Alexandra Popp opened the scoring early for Wolfsburg, before Valentina Giacinti equalised shortly after half-time.

Lineth Beerensteyn put the Wolves back in front after the hour and Jonsdottir then bagged four to give the win a sheen.

The Iceland forward came off the substitutes' bench on 66 minutes and netted her first just two minutes later.

She then scored three in the final five minutes to bring Wolfsburg up to nine points.

In Istanbul, six different players were on the scoresheet for Lyon as they ran riot at the Ataturk Olympic Stadium.

Ada Hegerberg and Sara Daebritz scored inside the 30 minutes, before a Jazmin Jackmon own-goal made it 3-0 by the break.

Captain Wendie Renard, Danielle van de Donk and Eugenie Le Sommer completed the scoring in the second half.

Le Sommer's 76th-minute strike brought up a significant milestone for the 35-year-old as it was her 50th goal in the Champions League.

Later, the focus shifts to Group B with Chelsea hosting Twente and Real Madrid visiting Celtic.
