Barcelona regained the Women’s Champions League title with a 4-0 win over Lyon in Saturday’s final.Striker Eva Pajor and forward Salma Paralluelo both scored twice in the second half at the Ullevaal stadium in Oslo, Norway, to ensure the Spanish side were crowned European champions for the fourth time in six years. Goalkeeper Cata Coll pulled off several important saves to keep Lyon at bay, with Paralluelo finding the net in quick succession in the 90th and 93rd minutes to give the result a more emphatic look.The game, a repeat of the competition’s 2019, 2022 and 2024 finals, was Barca’s sixth successive appearance in this fixture, but it was Lyon who enjoyed the better of the first half. USWNT midfielder Lindsey Heaps thought she had given the French champions the lead in the 13th minute when she side-footed home after Wendie Renard’s header was palmed into her path by Coll, but the goal was ruled out for offside following a VAR review.Barcelona’s best chance of the half fell to Pajor, who hit the side netting after lobbing goalkeeper Christiane Endler, but this was a rare sight of goal for them in the opening 45 minutes.Selma Bacha had a free kick well saved by Coll before the break, and the Barca goalkeeper also denied Ada Hegerberg from close range early in the second half.Barcelona opened the scoring shortly after, Pajor firing low into the bottom corner after being found by Patri Guijarro. The Poland international doubled their advantage in the 69th minute, prodding home from close range after being teed up by Paralluelo.
