84′ — Rall has a bandage wrapped around his head and leaves the field shaking. Yeah. Emilie Bragstad is in her place.
81′ — Catching up with some Bayern substitutions. Lea Schüller gave way to Franziska Kett some time ago. Sydney Lohmann has now left for Saki Kumagai. Maximiliane Rall is now on the pitch in some pain, and her night could also be over.
65′ – Barcelona goal! A rare mistake at the back from Mala Groh and Barca surged. It’s 3-1, it was Geyse who slipped it into an empty net.
60′ – LÉA SCHÜLLER! An imposing header at the far post for the Bayern Munich super striker. Barcelona’s hopes are crumbling more and more, while Schüller’s Christmas dreams seem to be coming true!
48′ – A stop at the fingertips of Grohs to preserve the advantage of Bayern!
46′ — A couple of Barcelona substitutes get us started.
Half-time thoughts and observations:
- What a turnaround in the first round between these two teams at Camp Nou. Bayern looked much more dangerous and started with immense energy.
- Super defensive interventions from a number of players and in particular goalkeeper Mala Grohs prevented Barcelona from recovering anything. Every duel, every challenge was there.
- Lea Schüller fell several times while holding her ankle. Hope it’s nothing serious.
- For the most part, the local side seems to be in control. Let’s see if they can continue this momentum in the second half. Barca will definitely make adjustments.
10′ — GOALLLL!!! What is happening? Carolin Simon cuts it in from the left line and Lina Magull snaps in. Bayern came to play today!
4′ — GOAL!!!! Bayern strike first, and fast! Klara Bühl bursts into the box with a late run and locks in a cross from the right flank. She skillfully pinches the ball behind the Barça goalkeeper and it’s a first declaration of intent from the locals!
Game preview:
Things didn’t go so well for Alexander Straus and FC Bayern Munich’s Frauen side when they last met FC Barcelona at Camp Nou in the UEFA Women’s Champions League.
However, this one will be on the Bavarian ground. And this is the opportunity for Lea Schüller, Klara Bühl, Georgia Stanway & co. to claim a buyout and tie Barca on points in Group D.
As usual for UWCL action, DAZN will stream this one live on YouTube. Watch it below and follow us in the game feed!
