Her role in the last World Cup with Chile and her work at PSG recent seasons have led her to be the best goalkeeper in the French league and for UEFA in recent years. The Chilean decided to change the air this summer to join to Lyon in the position that the French team most needed to reinforce and has become a pillar of the team.

He gets along wonderfully with Irene Paredes and he understands to perfection your team’s game where you have to be very safe to go to court and never raffle the ball.

The leader and captain of Olympique de Lyon is Wendie Renard. Centennial in Champions and already a legend of women’s football. The best center of the last decade. Her size makes it very difficult to overcome her from above, her long legs make her have a longer stride than anyone else and reach balls that seem impossible. Perhaps, that feeling of superiority that you have makes you make silly mistakes. Of course, he is not in the best moment of his career, but he is a real danger from set pieces. One of the French team’s best weapons are their shots from corners and lateral free kicks and it’s very difficult to stop them…

Alexia vs Macario

The Spanish is the current Ballon d’Or. There is little to say about her. She plays, makes play, assists, marks, defends and leads. It is almost everything in Barcelona. His refined technique, his vision of the game… a talent that has no limits and grows year after year. She is the helm of the team in attack, if she is inspired, Barça is unstoppable. If the OL manages to deactivate it, he will have a lot of gain. Unique and irreplaceable.

The American has a privileged physique. He has grown a lot since he arrived at Lyon and has adapted to working more in midfield despite not being his best position. He has a goal and a lot of arrival. Seven goals in the Champions League, thirteen in the league an idea of ​​your voracity in attack. It’s not that creative, but it has Lots of power and quality.

Hansen vs. Cascarino

the norwegian is the player most unbalancing one-on-one on the planet. He seems unstoppable when facing his full-back and almost always makes the best decision. He always raises his head and finds the player unmarked. But, in addition to that devilish dribbling, he has more things. Vision of the game, work on defense and a good physique. If she has the day it will be difficult for anyone to stop her.

The French is not at her best but, even so, it is all imbalance. A winger to use, who looks for his side and is not afraid to haggle. Quick and skilled, her form is the best news for Barcelona.

Jenni Hermoso vs Ada Hegerberg

The woman from Madrid is not at her best in a season marked by injuries. He has not been able to find his best version, but he has plenty of quality and experience to appear when his team needs him. This season has not been her highest scoring course, but she understands very well with her teammates, helps in the midfield in construction and appears when no one expects her. He is not a nine to use.

The Norwegian has spent 20 months in the dry dock due to a serious injury. She came back and, little by little, she is becoming that player capable of converting any ball into a goal. Quality, smell and a cream finisher, lethal. The top scorer in the history of the Champions League, the only one to score a hat-trick in a final, precisely, against Barcelona. If it’s right, it’s unstoppable…
