Barcelona Femeni beat Man City in Champions League quarter-final first leg

Barcelona Femeni enjoyed a 3-0 win over Manchester City Women in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final on Wednesday.

The game was played in Monza, rather than the Estadi Johan Cruyff due to Covid restrictions, but that didn’t seem to bother Lluis Cortes’s side who have taken charge of the tie.

Barcelona dominated the first half and broke the deadlock on 35 minutes through Asisat Oshoala. The forward fired a great shot across goal and in off the far post.

Oshoala was also in the thick of the action early in the second half and was brought down in the area by Demi Stokes to earn Barcelona a penalty.
