League obligation solved, the European freestyle can come: The FC Bayern women saved their strength for the quarter-final second leg of the Champions League in the Bavarian derby against 1. FC Nürnberg in the Bundesliga.
Four days before the reunion with Manchester United (first leg 3:2), coach José Barcala’s team won a lackluster 2-0 (0-0) against 1. FC Nürnberg. Striker Edna Imade (46th) and Natalia Padilla-Bidas (80th) scored for Munich in the Bavarian derby. With their 20th win in their 21st league game, Bayern are inexorably moving closer to their fourth championship in a row. Five game days before the end of the season, the lead over VfL Wolfsburg is 14 points.
Three days after the tricky quarter-final first leg at Old Trafford Barcala switched to seven positions, including in goal. Maria Luisa Grohs replaced Ena Mahmutovic, while Pernille Harder, among others, was initially given a break in the attack.
Despite promising chances, the celebration didn’t start until after the break. Imade scored from close range after a corner. Shortly before the end, Padilla-Bidas prepared the decision.
