For Wendie Renard and her teammates, winning a trophy is almost becoming a habit, with eight Champions Leagues, 14 national coronations and nine French Cups since 2010. Sonia Bompastor’s players also remain on course for a new title in D1 Arkéma against PSG, A week ago.
But against the Lyonnaises, FC Barcelona presents itself with a lot of confidence. The Spaniards are already assured of the title of Spanish champions and have just crushed Real Sociedad in the final of the Queen’s Cup 8-0 on May 18. The Catalans have only lost one game this season against Chelsea in the C1 semi-final first leg.
