Barça claimed their second Champions League with a goal from Rolfö that sealed the comeback.

Full-time report:

Tears from both sides after what was an incredible game from start to finish.

Barcelona came back from two goals down to win 3-2 against a Wolfsburg side that had taken control of the game and had one hand on the trophy.

What Jonatan Giráldez said to the players at half-time must be question number one after the game, as Barça came flying out of the blocks and after 5 minutes they were already level with two goals from Patri.

Their dominance continued and Rolfö got the winner on 70 minutes after great work from Geyse and Mariona to set up the full-back, and from then on Barça controlled the game with calm and precise possession.

Barcelona, for now, have done it; they have managed to turn the game around and without Alexia on the pitch.

The fans are on their feet and the Philips Stadion is rocking!

Geyse's first touch was a cross to Mariona, who could not find her feet to shoot. The ball fell awkwardly in the middle of the box and all Mariona could do was tap it left to Rolfo, who smacked a shot past Frohms in the middle of a huge scramble!

AND ANOTHER SAVE FROM PAÑOS!

PAJOR AGAIN!

Sandra Paños gets down well to collect a shot from the left by Pajor.

Barça lost the ball in the middle third and Wolfsburg let loose, attacking in huge numbers, and it was the Polish forward who had the final touch of the move.

as.com
67

Aitana's touch is poor and she sees the ball roll away from her boot and land at the feet of Jónsdóttir, who then goes on to loose possession herself. Nerves, anyone?

Nothing given by the Welsh referee. In other news, it looks like Geyse is coming on for Barcelona.

Popp goes down in the box and the German side want a penalty...

A series of loose passes in the middle third for both teams ends with Wolfsburg attacking 3vs2, but Mapi León's positioning was excellent to stop the threat from getting anywhere close to Sandra Paños in goal.

Wolfsburg are slowly working the ball around the back as Barcelona sit off in a 4-4-2 and wait for their moment to attack...

Hendrich slides in to stop Patri getting on the end of a through ball in the left channel and the ball rolls out for a corner. Barça have all the momentum as things stand and Wolfsburg look nervous in defence.

Popp tries a shot from distance that is blocked and Hansen breaks away with Salma on the left. Bronze gets the ball and hits a cross towards Salma who made a run away from her marker but the ball is cleared.

56

Barça battle back with a long spell of possession of their own: all of a sudden their passing looks a lot more zingy and fresh. Like a box of new oranges.

54

As you might expect, Barça have all the momentum in the game right now, and Wolfsburg are trying to lower their levels of adrenaline with some sustained possession.

53

Wolfsburg try to gain some ground on the pitch and launch their own attack, but they look shellshocked and the ball rolls out of play.

Hansen has all the space in the world on the right and her cross is cleared by Janssen at the last second, right before Salma can get a foot on the ball.

And they nearly get a third!

The ball came floating over from the right and Patri jumped highest to get a head to the cross and fire it into the net!

Half-time stats that tell a story:

Barça: 15 shots, 0 Goals

Wolfsburg: 3 shots, 2 Goals

as.com

Well, well, well...

What a half of football. 

Wolfsburg have been ruthless and have punished Barça for blinking twice in 45 minutes. 

The first goal came extremely early on, with Lucy Bronze running into trouble and allowing Pajor the chance to find enough space on the edge of the box to fire a rocket into the top corner.

The second goal came after a huge number of Barcelona chances went begging: time and time again the Catalan side have found space on the wing for Salma, Hansen or Rolfö, but they have not been able to take advantage, with a lot of sloppy passes into and around the box.

Wolfsburg broke away after one of the many missed chances for Barça and an early cross from Pajor was met by Popp who, well, popped the ball past Paños to make it two.

as.com
45+2

Half-time!

That's all for now!

The Barça forward was slipped in by Bronze as Wolfsburg had edged further back into their own box. The goalkeeper ran out to stop the striker from making contact with the ball, halting a certain goal.

Geyse and Alexia are warming up...

Jónsdóttir broke down the right and Mapi León chased her all the way back.

The Icelandic forward didn't see Pajor on her own in the box and gave Mapi enough time to get back and slide in at the last second.

MAPI LEON SAVES BARÇA

We're back underway...

as.com

There's a long way to go yet but Barcelona have been punished for tiny errors.

They are wasting too many chances and arrivals on goal and they need to make the final pass count. 

Meanwhile, Alexia looks visibly worried on the bench. She's not a bad substitute to bring on...

Popp peeled away from Irene Paredes as the ball was floated in by Pajor from the left and the header was downward and hit perfectly past Paños!

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLL

WOLFSBURG MAKE IT TWO

Mapi León got down the left and played a delightful cross towards goal. Hansen, just yards out, got a touch on the ball but it inexplicably flew behind her and away from goal. An incredibly strange touch...

as.com

CHANCE FOR BARCELONA

as.com
33

Aitana gets a booking for a challenge in the middle of the park... frustration is getting to everyone, especially the manager, who has not sat down once since the first whistle.

as.com
32

Irene Paredes does well to get in front of Popp as the ball is sent behind the Barça defence. Another warning.

as.com
30

Half an hour gone and, despite the chances, Wolfsburg are managing the game very well.

I'd even go so far as to say that they could step up another gear and cause Barça problems without much effort, as the passing just feels off from the Catalan side.

as.com
29

Patri attempts a ludicrous effort from the centre circle that is caught by Frohms without any problems.

as.com

Hansen weaves past two challenges on the right and plays to Aitana, whotakes one touch too many before firing a shot at Janssen, who blocks.

as.com
27

CHANCE FOR BARÇA!

as.com
26

A cross/shot over the top from Jónsdóttir is collected by Paños. The Barcelona crowd, shaking with nerves, audibly gasp.

as.com
25

And just like that, Wolfsburg flick a switch and press the Catalan defenders in crazy fashion. It takes them by surprise and forces them Catalan side to clear the ball away from the danger zone.

as.com
24

Aitana receives the ball from Hansen after great work in the box but the midfielder is offside and another chance to attack goes begging for Barça.

as.com
22

Barça waste the free-kick after Mapi and Hansen mess up the training ground move: the centre-back whips in the subsequent cross and it flies over the heads of everyone and goes out for a throw-in.

as.com
22

The first card of the game goes to Hendrich after a foul on Salma Paralluelo.

as.com
20

Oberdorf gets down well to stop Aitana's shot from inside the box. Fantastic defending from the midfielder.

as.com
19

Aitana plays a poor pass left to Salma and it's easily cut out by Hendrich. Groans from the fans who are becoming frustrated.

as.com
17

Bronze gets a foot in to stop Popp getting away as Wolfsburg launch a counter attack. This game is so finely poised, a breath of wind in one direction would be enough to tip the balance.

as.com
16

Rolfö is beginning to have a huge influence in attack on the left side: she broke past her marker but could not find the right run of the many inside the box.

as.com
15

Wolfsburg remind Barça that they too know how to create chances and break down the right before playing in a dangerous cross that Mapi León heads away.

as.com

The corner was swung towards the back post where Irene was on her won but somehow she put the ball wide from less than a metre from goal!

as.com
13

WHAT A CHANCE FOR IRENE PAREDES

as.com
12

Rolfö finally finds space and plays the ball towards Mariona but the two do not connect and again it's Janssen who clears.

as.com
10

Jónsdóttir is not allowing Rolfö a moment of peace so far, and has done well to stop the full-back from advancing into dangerous positions on the ball.

as.com
8

Chance for Barcelona as Salma twists left then right, sending Hendrich searching for her twisted ribs on the floor. 

The Spanish forward then plays a low pass across the 6-yard box but CGH can't get off the mark quickly enough to sweep it into the net and Janssen clears.

Salma Paralluelo fires over from the resulting corner!

Barça have a free-kick on the right side of the box...

Defended well by the goalscorer.

Barça restart the game and go on the offensive, arriving down the left and playing a dangerous ball across goal that is cleared by Janssen.

as.com

A Lucy Bronze error in the buildup fell to Pajor who hit a rocket from distance that Paños got a hand to but had no chance of stopping!

The England defender took too much time on the ball at the back and ran into trouble, allowing Pajor to steal possession and launch a ferocious shot into the top corner.

One for the future...

You may spot a frizzy hairstyle sat on the Barça bench today, and you wouldn't be the first person to notice that the friendly face sporting it looks extremely young to be a footballer for a team in the UWCL final.

Vicky López is Spanish football's rising star, and at just 16-years-old, the midfielder has already won the u-17 World Cup as well as made her debut in the Liga F and UWCL.

She took her national team, led by Kenio Gonzalo, to the final of the 2023 Euros last week, where she scored tow goals in two minutes as Spain led an heroic comeback against France, ultimately losing 3-2.

Alexia Putellas says she feels “100%” ahead of Women’s Champions League final against Wolfsburg

So, we know Alexia is starting on the bench, but is it due to fitness?

The Ballon d'Or holder said that she felt '100%' yesterday in the pre-match press conference, but she also recognised that "how many minutes I play is up to the manager". 

It seems that Giráldez not set on having her play the full 90, unless he's expecting there to be more than that...

Barça boss pre-game:

We need to minimise Wolfsburg's strengths. We will be wary of their quick attacks and set pieces. We want to dominate the game and not let them show their strengths. If we do that and manage the game well, we will have a very good chance.

Jonatan Giráldez, Barcelona manager

I think we're in very good shape. All the players are available, which is a big positive. We've had lots of time to prepare for this final. Experience also gives us a boost. It gives us more strategies ahead of the final. I am feeling optimistic.

Jonatan Giráldez, Barcelona manager

I'm very excited. When you get to coach Barcelona, you have to compete in big games for major honours in every competition. Being here shows we've done a very good job overall. We are thrilled to be here and hope to get the win tomorrow.

How much prize money do the Women’s Champions League winners earn?

We've all seen the astronomical figures that are thrown about when talking about the major tournaments in men's football - but are things the same for the women's game?

Well, not quite, but it's still a huge quantity of money that is involved and the winners definitely don't go away empty-handed. The game is growing every day so hopefully we can see the level of the sport increase as the money pot that looms over everything gets larger and larger...

Stroot pre-match press conference:

For us as a team it's worth a lot. It's been our aim for a long time, especially having reached the semi-finals last year. But it's also clear that we want to win the game and lift the trophy, and so the final also means hard work because we want to be champions.

Tommy Stroot, Wolfsburg manager

It's almost impossible to imagine what winning the trophy and bringing it back to Wolfsburg would mean...

Tommy Stroot, Wolfsburg manager

I'm excited to see what the feelings will be if it actually does happen, but I'll definitely be proud – and certainly lots of other emotions will also pour out. However, let's take it one step at a time.

FC Barcelona Femení 1-1 (2-1) Chelsea: summary, match report, analysis | Women’s Champions League semi-final second leg

The Catalan side stormed past every team in their Champions League group, coming away with 5 wins and 1 loss (against Bayern). In the quarter-final stage, they played againstRoma where a 1-1 draw in the first leg sent them to Camp Nou with a few doubts, given that the loss in last year’s final was still raw. However, there was no need to be nervous, as Barça blew their Italian opponents away, scoring five goals.

A semi-final over two legs against Chelseawasnext. Barça had beaten Hayes’ side in the 2021 final of the Champions League but nevertheless, The Blues came into the tie with a strong squad that was pushing for the WSL title. 

In the first leg, Barça went ahead after just a few minutes with a Carloine Graham Hansen strike and the scoreboard did not change, setting up a do-or-die tie at Camp Nou. 

The nerves were at, as you might have guessed, incrediblyhighlevelsatBarça’sstadium, full to the brim with fans once again.

Chelsea defended excellently well and stopped Barcelona from working the ball centrally into the wide areas where players like Salma and Hansen could have done damage. But the home side soon broke the deadlock, with Aitana setting up the Norwegian for a low strike that sent the stadium into delirium

But it was a feeling that was soon quashed, as Guro Reiten scored just moments later, setting up a hugely tense end to the game.

Barça took their medicine and defended as the clock ticked in an agonisingly slow fashion, but they held on and won 2-1 on aggregate.

MATTHEW CHILDS / Action Images via Reuters

How they got here...

 The German side breezed through the group stage, winning 4 and drawing 2 of their games, finishing the first stage top of the pile with 14 points. They took on the ever-dangerous Paris Saint Germain in the quarter-finals, who had edged Real Madrid to second place in Group A.

Élisa De Almeida’s second yellow for PSG came after she gave away a penalty from a handball that was scored by Dominique Janssen, a goal that ended up being what separated the two sides after 90 minutes. A draw in the second leg confirmed that the German side would make it to the semi-finals.

Wolfsburg faced Arsenal in the semi-finals, and the tie, after two incredibly exciting affairs, looked to be going to penalties before a late mistake from Lottie Wubben-Moycruelly sent The Gunners out with the last kick of the game

Wolfsburg are in their sixth final in 10 years.
