LONDON, May 3: Pernille Harder’s late header made the difference for Chelsea, and Lieke Martens scored twice for Barcelona, as they took a step closer to becoming European champions.
Both teams advanced to the Women’s Champions League final when Chelsea beat Bayern Munich 4-1 after Barça topped Paris Saint-Germain 2-1 in the second leg of their semifinals on Sunday. They’ll meet on May 16 in Gothenburg, Sweden.
It’s the first time Chelsea has reached the final, while the Catalan club’s only other trip to the final was in 2019, when it lost 4-1 to French powerhouse Lyon. (AP)
