Pere Romeu’s team, with many rotations, left everything resolved in the first half with Kika Nazareth’s double and Vicky López’s goal, to take their foot off the accelerator after Alexia’s 0-4, and let the Sankt Pölten breathed a little to the point of reducing distances and generating a few more chances.

Pere Romeu, Barcelona coach, warned in the preview that “sIt will be a demanding match. We will try to propose a match similar to that of Johan Cruyff Stadium“, generating many scoring chances and reaching the rival area, but it is possible that it will be a different match in terms of result.”
Schlüter; D’Angelo, Vracevic, Dubcova, Johanning, Schumacher; Brunnthaler, Mikolajova, Hillebrand, Pekel; girl
Even so, the match will have an added difficulty: el Barça will find a very cold climate in Onealthough no rain is expected at game time, the temperature will fluctuate around three degrees with a wind chill of minus three, and wind gusts of up to 35 km/h, so the culés will have to prevail not only against the rival and their public but also to the cold.
