FC Barcelona Femeni secured consecutive victories in the UEFA Women’s Champions League, triumphing 2-0 over the French team Lyon in the final on May 25 2024.
The Spanish powerhouses have maintained their dominance in the competition, claiming the trophy for the third time in four years.
Following a scoreless first half, 2023 Women’s Ballon d’Or recipient Aitana Bonmati opened the scoring in the 63rd minute. As Lyon sought to equalize, Alexia Putellas sealed the victory with a goal in the 95th minute.
The season has been remarkable for the women’s team, who have clinched the Women’s La Liga title with 27 victories in 28 matches. With only two games remaining, they are on the brink of completing an undefeated season.
