April 16, (THEWILL) – Following a 2-0 win away at Valencia in a game that the Blaugranes dominated from kickoff to final whistle, Barcelona Femeni have now won 27 of their 27 Primera Ibedrola fixtures so far this season.
Jonatan Giráldez’s squad got off to a strong start, and they took the lead on 17 minutes when Julia Bartel’s excellent effort was rewarded with a fine finish from Aitana Bonmati.
Marta Torrejón struck the crossbar as Bonmati’s goal opened the door to a slew of further chances. However, the Blaugranes only led by one goal at half-time.
With only eight minutes left in the game, Mapi Léon added a second goal in the second half. Marta Torrejón made her 400th league appearance for Barça in this encounter.
The blaugranes now have their sights set on Friday’s Champions League semi-final first leg against Wolfsburg.
Having already won the League, if they do win the Champions League and the Spanish Cup, Barça Women will be the only football team ever to win two European Trebles in a row, and they could do it with a 100% record to top it all off.
