This Week in Barça Femení: Sweet Sixteen

Barcelona’s all-conquering women’s team took a giant step towards the 2021-22 Primera División title thanks to two spectacular wins this week, including their most impressive victory of the season.

It all started last Sunday against Eibar at the Johan Cruyff Stadium. The opposition came in fighting against relegation and stood no chance from the start, with Barça scoring five first half goals in just 27 minutes, including a brace for right-back Marta Torrejón.

The defenders really shined on this one, with Marta, Mapi León, Leila Ouahabi and Melanie Serrano scoring five of the seven goals, and midfielder Aitana Bonmatí returned from injury and joined the scoring party too.
