Lyon Qualify for Champions League Quarter-Finals ¶
On August 8, 2020, Lyon secured a spot in the Champions League quarter-finals after a thrilling match against Juventus in Turin, Italy.
Despite losing 2-1 to Juventus, Lyon qualified for the quarter-finals due to away goals, having won the first leg in February.
Memphis Depay's 12th-minute penalty gave Lyon a crucial lead, which they managed to hold onto despite Juventus' efforts led by Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ronaldo scored two penalties, one in the first half and another on the hour mark, but it was not enough to take Juventus through.
Lyon will now face Manchester City in the quarter-finals, who defeated 13-time champions Real Madrid in the previous round.
