Even the best team in France, will Olympique Lyonnais women once again be the best team in Europe? Crowned champions of France for the third consecutive season by dominating PSG on May 17 in the final of the D1 Arkema, the Fenottes set off again to attack an even more prestigious final.
Sonia Bompastor’s players take on FC Barcelona, in a hostile Bilbao stadium and won over by the opponent (sold out in front of more than 53,000 spectators), on Saturday for the epilogue of the C1. They will be able to dream of a ninth Champions League in their history and are far from being satisfied: “We are OL, we want to win everything there is to win,” assured Lyonnaise Melchie Dumornay.
Fallers of… PSG in the semi-finals (victories 3-2 then 1-2), the Lyonnaises advance as favorites against the Spanish, title holders but less experienced. Barça got the better of Chelsea (0-1 defeat, 0-2 victory) to validate their ticket to the grand final.
The Champions League final between FC Barcelona and Olympique Lyonnais is scheduled for this Saturday, May 25 at 6 p.m. The meeting will be broadcast live and free by DAZN on its platform and on its YouTube channel.
