Despite their role as the clear underdog, the Arsenal women once again proved all skeptics wrong. After a hard-fought and selfless performance, the Londoners secured the UWCL trophy against the defending champions from Barcelona.
From the very beginning, the Barça women had the upper hand. The Catalans pressed hard on the Arsenal women's goal but repeatedly failed against a more than just confident Daphne van Domselaar, leading to a goalless half-time.
Even in the second half, the Barça players created clear advantages. However, the crucial opening goal remained elusive until it fell on the other side in the 74th minute. After a cross from Beth Mead, the Swede Stina Blackstenius placed the ball with a right-footed shot into the net of the reigning CL champions.
Despite the overwhelming final offensive from the Catalans, it was not enough for an equalizer in the end.
