Words from Jule Brand: “It’s very special to play against my old club, where I spent three wonderful years. When I played against Lyon, they were always very tough matches between two great teams. I was lucky enough to face some very high-level players, even if, back then, we didn’t see the ball very often. I hope that this time it will be the opposite. These are always intense matches, between two teams that are often at the same level; we’ll see how it goes tomorrow.”
