Barcelona Women remain perfect this season and will take a lead into next week’s Women’s Champions League quarterfinal second leg thanks to a hard-fought 3-1 first leg win over Real Madrid at the Alfredo Di Stéfano Stadium. Barça were far from their best and faced a very competitive Madrid side, but Femení eventually showed their superiority in the second half and found the winning goals to give themselves a chance to finish the job in front of a packed Camp Nou next Wednesday.
FIRST HALF
Barça were quite simply unrecognizable in the first half, playing the worst 45 minutes of their season so far.
