Watch Barcelona vs Lyon live streams as two of the most dominant forces in European football meet in what should be a thrilling Women’s Champions League final at the Ullevaal Stadion in Oslo, Norway.
After opening their European campaign with a thumping 7-1 win over Bayern Munich, Barcelona have cruised through to their sixth successive final. They finished top of the league phase before crushing rivals Real Madrid 12-2 in the quarters and securing a thrilling 5-3 win over Bayern in the semi-finals. Now chasing a fourth Champions League title, Barca will look to two-time Ballon d’Or winner Alexia Putellas and star striker Ewa Pajor to make the difference. The duo have scored a combined 16 goals in this year’s competition, while Spanish ace Putellas also has seven assists.
Lyon also excelled during the league phase as they finished level on points with Barcelona, but were pushed hard in the knockout phase. They needed extra time to overcome Wolfsburg in the quarter-finals before bouncing back from a first-leg defeat to beat Arsenal 4-3 on aggregate in the last four. Now competing in a 12th European final, they’ll aim for a repeat of the 2022 season when they beat Barcelona 3-1 to lift the crown. Striker Ada Hegerberg was on target in that final and will be hoping to fire her side to victory once again.
