On January 21, 2026, in her first start for Dijon, Asutralian striker Kyah Simon scored a hat trick in the first half during the French Women’s Professional Football League Cup (Coupe Ligue Féminine du Football Professionnel) versus Reims.
Dijon went on to win the game 4-0 and finished first in their qualifying group. Dijon will play at home their quarter-final versus Nantes on February 4th/5th.
Simon’s first goal was in the 11th minute on a cross from Meriame Terchoun.
The second one was with a header in the 22nd minute on a cross from Chengshu Wu.
The third one was with another header at the 30th minute on a cross from Margaux Vairon.
It was a great start for Simon. It will likely be the first of many starts to come if she maintains fitness.
