There were no matches last week for Barcelona Femení as women’s football went into an international break. Barça will return to action this Saturday as they welcome Athletic Bilbao to continue their dominance in the Primera División, but the week was all about one woman: Alexia Putellas.
The Barça captain was confirmed on Monday as the winner of the 2021 Ballon d’Or as the world’s best women’s player after leading the club to a Treble last season. Unlike the men’s side of the bracket there was absolutely zero debate and Alexia was the only deserving recipient of the award.
