Barcelona with perfect season
And it looks a little like it. Because in Spain, FC Barcelona played the perfect season. The master won all 30 games. The team conceded only eleven goals against 159 of their own goals. On average, coach Jonatan Giráldez’s team scored 5.3 goals per game
The “Blaugrana” also trumped powerfully in the Champions League. In the semifinals there was a 5-1 win at home against VfL Wolfsburg, the premier class winners in 2013 and 2014.
aesthetics and dynamics
The “wolves” had nothing to oppose the dreaded offensive around world footballer Alexia Putellas. Barcelona impresses with high speed and has a spectacular switching game.
The team is technically perfect and tactically trained across the board, the players make few mistakes and impress with an aesthetic and dynamic that is second to none. It seems a little as if the women of FC Barcelona are way ahead of their time.
Pioneer in terms of attention
They are also pioneers when it comes to attracting attention to women’s football. There were 91,648 spectators in the stadium when the Wolfsburg women played Camp Nou. In the quarterfinals against Real Madrid there were more than 91,000 fans.
These are numbers that German clubs can only dream of. “We pave the way for all future generations”, said midfielder Aitana Bonmati. And national goalkeeper Almuth Schult from VfL Wolfsburg was also impressed: “It gives me goosebumps. It’s a great reward for us women. It’s exactly what we want to experience.”
