Wolfsburg's women beat PSG 4-0 – dream start to the Champions League!
In a highly anticipated opening game of the Champions League, the women of VfL Wolfsburg won impressively against Paris Saint-Germain 4-0 on October 8, 2025. The encounter, which took place in the home stadium, caused a lot of excitement among the fans. An own goal from Jackie Groenen put the hosts in the lead in the 7th minute. Wolfsburg proved to be the superior team throughout the entire game and showed a strong performance both offensively and defensively.
With a solid half-time lead of 2-0 thanks to another goal from Ella Peddemors in the 42nd minute, the Wolves were in control of the game. After the game, goalkeeper Stina Johannes emphasized the dominance and efficiency of Wolfsburg's game, which was also due to the stable defensive performance. Although PSG pushed in the second half and had several chances, they were denied a goal. Alexandra Popp and Janina Minge scored goals in the last minute of the game for a clear 4-0 win. Popp scored with a header in the 90th minute, while Minge converted a handball penalty in the 90th+4 minute after the VAR reviewed a handball decision in Wolfsburg's favor.
A look at the next challenges
With this victory, VfL Wolfsburg is sending a strong signal in the group stage of the Champions League. In the new competition season, 18 teams are fighting for a place in the quarter-finals. The next game is already scheduled: Next Saturday, the She-Wolves will face FC Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga, who previously suffered a bitter 7-1 defeat in a match against FC Barcelona. This encounter promises to be just as exciting after the strong performance in the Champions League.
The current Bundesliga leaders, Wolfsburg, remain undefeated and are among the favorites in both competitions. Before this match, the Wolves had already won five competitive games in a row, including an impressive 11-0 in the cup and an equally strong 8-0 in the league. PSG, on the other hand, recently suffered a defeat and will have to do a lot of work to recover from this result if they want to survive in European competition.
Overall, it can be said that VfL Wolfsburg gave a clear indication of their ambitions in the Champions League with this start. The combination of efficiency and defensive stability could carry them far, both nationally and internationally. Fans can look forward to an exciting season!
