Barça and Chelsea, before the milestone of adding a female and male Champions League in their showcases

The final of the Women's Champions League next Sunday (21:00) between Chelsea and Barça in Gothenburg will leave a great historical data in his champion. Whether it is the English or the Spanish who end up winning, the continental title will hide a great milestone: the first team to have a Champions League trophy in their two categories, male and female, in their showcases.

The 'blues' will have already managed to make history for that penultimate day of May if they beat Barça in Gothenburg, inscribing the name of the English club also in the women's track record of a Champions League that they won in 2012. If they become champions again, beating Manchester City in the final, the European tournament will have a historical touch that goes further, with the first team that manages to have two trophies in its two categories and does so in the same season. It would be legendary …
