The one in San Mamés will be the final in capital letters of the Women's Champions League with the last two champions. Barcelona will face Olympique Lyonnais in the Cathedral. You have to go back to 2015 to find a champion different from these two clubs. The Lyonnais left no room for PSG's comeback at the Parc des Princes (1-2) and qualified for their eleventh final. The French champions, who have not lost a European final since 2013, are aiming for their ninth title.
Barcelona are well aware of the power of their bête noire, which they have already suffered in the defeats in the finals of 2022 (3-1 in Turin) and 2019 (4-1 in Budapest). The Barcelona fans, who consider that in Bilbao they will play almost at home, hope that it will be the ideal opportunity to finally win against a team they have never been able to beat (four official duels and a friendly in Portland).
In the second leg of the semi-finals, Lyon defended the 3-2 lead from the first leg and increased their lead in the 3rd minute with a great left-footed goal from Bacha. Before the break, Chawinga, the top scorer in the French league, equalized the score.
But in the second half the Chilean goalkeeper Endler barely had to intervene. What's more, in the final stretch the Haitian Dumornay, who already scored in the first leg, took advantage of an assist from Bacha to make the final 1-2.
Renard, Horan and Hegerberg, trained by Sonia Bompastor, cross paths with Barça again.
