In the first qualifying round we beat the Russian Zorky, thanks to a historic comeback (0-3) in the final minutes of the second leg match. 

The French squad arrives in Madrid as leader of the French League with a background of nine wins in as many games. They have managed to score 52 goals without conceding a single goal in any of these matches. The French team knows what it is to win the Women's Champions League, since it won this prestigious trophy in the 2010 / 2011 and 2011 / 2012 season.
