Barcelona women's team returned to the pinnacle of European football by routing their fiercest rivals Lyon 4-0 in a dominant second-half display in the Women's Champions League final.

The match took place at Ullevaal Stadion in Oslo, Norway. Barcelona forward Ewa Pajor, who had lost in her first five European finals, finally tasted victory with two goals on her sixth attempt.

Pajor opened the scoring in the 55th minute with a precise low shot, and added a close-range finish in the 69th minute as Barcelona's attack overwhelmed Lyon's stretched defense.

Salma Paralluelo sealed the win with a rising shot in the 90th minute and added another slick finish in stoppage time.

The first goal was created by a surging 40-meter run and assist from Patri Guijarro, often overlooked in a star-studded midfield alongside Ballon d'Or winners Aitana Bonmatí and Alexia Putellas.

Barcelona have won all four domestic and international trophies this season, becoming four-time European champions in just six seasons—a dynasty in women's football that replaces Lyon's dominance of the previous decade.

A year ago, Barcelona were denied another trophy sweep with a surprising 1-0 loss to Arsenal in the final.
