Barça Women Dominate Sevilla Ahead of UWCL Semi-Final Showdown
What a night at Estadi Johan Cruyff, as Barça Femení sent out a thunderous warning to their Champions League rivals by dismantling Sevilla 5-1 in a thrilling Liga F encounter. With the first leg of the UEFA Women’s Champions League semi-final against Chelsea looming just days away, this performance felt like both a statement and a warm-up rolled into one.
The match saw seven changes to Barça’s starting lineup, but there was no drop in intensity or class. The opening stages showed promise with chances from Schertenleib and Patri, but it was Ewa Pajor who truly ignited the evening. The Polish forward continued her hot streak with a clinical brace, proving once again why she leads the league in goals. The first came on 25 minutes after a sharp low cross from Pina, and the second followed shortly after, with Pajor tapping in a rebound from Rolfö’s initial effort.

Just before the break, a rare lapse allowed Sevilla’s Fatou to pull one back, capitalizing on a mistake from Cata Coll. It was a small hiccup, but it didn’t shake the confidence of the Blaugrana. In fact, it only seemed to fuel them.
Romeu responded by sending in the cavalry—Alexia Putellas and Salma Paralluelo came off the bench and instantly changed the tempo. Salma’s shot forced a save, and Vicky López pounced on the rebound to score Barça’s third. Moments later, Alba Caño, making a memorable impact, netted her first goal for the first team after another precise assist from Rolfö. And to top it all off, Aitana Bonmatí reminded everyone of her brilliance with a late solo strike to make it 5-1.
It wasn’t just a win—it was a reminder of what this team is capable of when firing on all cylinders. With Chelsea on the horizon, this commanding display not only extends Barça’s league dominance but also sets a confident tone heading into European competition. The rotations worked, the youngsters stepped up, and the veterans delivered. It’s the perfect combination of depth, quality, and momentum.
Come Sunday, the Estadi Johan Cruyff will host a European battle with everything on the line, and if tonight’s performance is anything to go by, Barça are more than ready to rise to the occasion.
