However, as the whistle blew for half-time, it was clear that Barcelona had other plans in store.

A Second Half to Remember

In a staggering display of skill and teamwork, they scored eight goals post-intermission, showcasing their attacking prowess under new head coach Pere Romeu. Key contributions came from England international Keira Walsh, who not only netted the equalizer but scored her second goal later in the match, marking her first brace since joining from Manchester City in 2022.
