After finishing the series of two games, the Blaugrana team managed to overcome the Wolfsburg team and slipped into the top two of the tournament thanks to a 5-3 aggregate score over the Germans.
And it is that more than half of the work was done in the first leg, which was played in a Camp Nou that housed more than 91,000 people in a historic match that broke attendance records and where the Spanish came out victorious with a score 5-1.
This large scoreboard gave them an important advantage ahead of the second leg that was played today, Saturday, April 30, 2022 in Germany, so we did not expect to see so many goals in this match.
At least, that’s how the situation remained during the first 45 minutes, as neither Barcelona nor Wolfsburg were able to hurt each other in a game that generated many chances for both teams and that was a solid defensive wall for the locals.
However, starting the second half Wolfsburg would seek to wake up through Tabea Wassmuth who scored the first of the match and the second for the Germans on the aggregate score, cutting the difference to three goals only and a few minutes later, Jill Roord would put the second for the locals and bringing Wolfsburg closer to the aggregate score.
But the minutes ran out and time was running out for the Germans who still needed two more goals to tie the series. On the other hand, Barcelona suffered a lot during the game and never felt comfortable against a Wolfsburg team that never gave up.
In this way, the game concluded and despite Wolfsburg’s efforts, Barcelona reached the Champions League final in what was the first losing game in the entire tournament for the Blaugrana.
Barcelona awaits the winner of Lyon vs. Paris Saint-Germain to meet his rival for European glory.
