Passing with purpose. Invite the high pressure, put the defenders on separate islands, and attack the space behind. Progressive passing with one or two-touches.

Has it happened before in Spain? Three teams in the top three divisions.

In the post-match press duties, Flick says 100 points is a goal for this season. He is really really focused.

La imagen curiosa del partido. 😂

🏆

There is an easy way to know which news is true. If it is a signing for Barça, Maria Tikas will provide reliable news. If it is news about a player leaving Barça, English press will provide the truth.

This is already more research than Florentino did

Lmao, that Davies handball was the difference between the two sides. Carlos del Cerro Grande and Guillermo Cuadra Fernandez were on VAR for that game.

Pina should try to play these passes more often. She has the talent. Salma looks transformed. Making a real impact from the wing - attacking space, dribbling and making good decisions with her passes.

I guess it is not that complicated, but Pere Romeu literally discusses the plan to use the wingers better in the second leg against Bayern. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfzg...

Assuming there's some money for transfers, Deco's job is to find the players so that Barça don't lose to clearly inferior teams in the Champions League. You can lose to Bayern, or PSg, but not to this Atleti team.

Women's football is a different world entirely. Three guaranteed starters could possibly leave Barça after this season, and two of them are Catalans.

Messi has set the bar so absurdly high that we will only see competition for the second spot :(

Except for the Copa de la Reina final, I don’t want to see the starters much until the Final in Oslo. Don’t care what happens in Liga F. Keep them rested and fresh.

There is one scenario Barça has rarely faced. If the tie was 2-2 after 60 minutes today, could the substitutes have given enough to win the game. But the same can be said for several top women’s teams in Europe.

That’s a statement performance.

Sixth consecutive final. What an achievement from this young team to reach a CL final this season. Salma’s return to form a huge boost.

Even if this was disallowed, I don’t like Patri trying to dribble in the middle of the pitch.

Shooting wide or directly at Mahmutović…

Awful game from Pina. Just no idea how to control the game in this context.

Big mistake getting Salma off. Only Pajor can win duels from long balls now. Bayern are bound to press high while the subs cannot retain possession.

It would be nice if they held onto the ball for 5 minutes…

Barça’s defending could be better…

Top performance from Salma in a big game. And Barça really needed it.

Barça scored 2 goals from 2.53 xG in the first half. They have scored another 2 goals from 0.43 xG in the second half.

Hmm, Aitana is fit enough to play 30 minutes.

What a special player Alexia is!!! Another crucial set-piece goal.

Deserved goal. You can't play so much better and they tie the score with a random counter.

What a goal to win the Primera Federación!!! Maria Llorella -> Kautar Azraf -> Celia Segura. Breaking down a low block with extra style points.

Excellent win. They finished 8th last season with a young team. Aïcha and Serrajordi got promoted, Szymczak left on loan. The young team won even while losing players during international windows and a few serious injuries. Charlotta Ohlander and Laia Cabetas from Barça C played important minutes.

I think about this all the time.

I am not a marketing person, but I would like a shift from this method of promoting the Barça Femení matches at Camp Nou with the same questions. At some point, we need to stop treating it as a special privilege for the women's team, but as a regular but important match at Camp Nou.

I wonder if Saudi Pro League will also face funding cuts. It has been an escape route for European (mostly PL) clubs, when they have a declining player on high wages.

I think this extension of Daniela suggests a very clear strategy of commitment to youth development. Daniela and Julia Torres both play in the same position. 18-24 months in the B team, then you either get promoted or a loan. The best players can earn their spot in the senior team in 3-4 years.

Kane won four rapid games today before kickoff, calling the hat trick now

I was thinking about Barça's younger players and subs. I think Serrajordi is the only one with a signature move to create chances. The rest freestyle and don't really have a consistent method to contribute offensively.

Sharing is caring. Fermín's growth has been impressive. Rashford has his limitations, but I doubt Barça would have a comfortable 11 point cushion without his contributions this season.

Dumornay and Bacha warmed the bench in a UWCL semi-final? What is up at OL Lyonnes?

No analyst will praise Barça for this high-line recovery that gave Barça the win today.

Not a bad away result, but should have scored another.

I would have liked to see some patience here. Not putting any pressure on Bayern.

Barça have played much better than Bayern in the second half, but ended up punished for one mistake because no one covered for Patri.

Thank you Kett for that red. I enjoy stupid defenders in the rival team.

Barça created one real chance in the first half, and converted it. Not much otherwise offensively. Battled well defensively, especially on set pieces.

Bayern trying to create turnovers in midfield and Barça forcing careless passes again and again through the middle.

Beautiful cross, clinical finish. Brugts -> Pajor.

SEVENTH LIGA F TITLE IN A ROW! 👏

Nice that Fenger is now scoring more and more. Carla Julià with an impressive game, goal and two assists. The crosses from the left are underrated.
