Arsenal 1-0 Barcelona: René Siliger deserves as the mastermind of one of the greatest UEFA Champions League Football news

Chelsea was supposed to be. Sonia Bombastor was supposed to be the European specialist, and the only individual who invaded the Champions League as a player and coach three times.

But Chelsea could not do what Arsenal has. They could not overcome Barcelona.

Renee Slegers led its team to the Estadio Jose alvalade winner, with only its realization, as in the club’s shorts and shirts, as if it were leading a regular training session.

Moments later, shiny, rhetorical and white banners traded after Kim Little, Williamson, raised the Champions League Cup, and her glow reflects the burning heat of the sun of Lisbon, and embraced her family.

The victory was Arsenal, but the architect was wither.

“We have changed the game’s plan in the week and it resulted,” Williamson, who was Colosus at the back, revealed 14 declarations and bloc to provide goals. TNT SPORTS. “We knew that we had to have the game of our lives.”

The last time Arsenal won this competition against Umea in Sweden in 2007, Williamson was also there, but as a ball girl while playing in the world famous Oscar in the club when he was 10 years old. After 18 years, she writes her history.

The magnitude of the achievement felt closer to the moment the microphone was dropped in many ways. Arsenal has undergone a wonderful transformation this season, but a few outside the club – critics and fans alike – believed that Barcelona can overcome magic, winners in three of the past four campaigns, in the largest stage.

This is the team that the midfield contains Aitana Bonmati and Alexia Putellas, who benefit from the last four Ballon D’or Awards. A team scored at least once in each of the last 41 games. A team scored 19 goals in the three matches leading to the final on Saturday.

The team that put eight of Chelsea prize in the semi -finals. eight. Golden Age things.

“We gave birth to these types of matches,” Bonmati said in the pre -match interview. The midfielder, who is widely considered the most technical talented in any women’s game currently, took six shots, three of which needed a rescue by Daphne van Domsilar. I have created many opportunities. Its 80 touches were dual, as she managed Little (41) in the midfield in Arsenal. But nothing of this is at the end.

Arsenal managed to suppress and restrict Barcelona in a very few teams. They were recorded by another alternative to wear. They played in moments, they were smart and more street, supported by the belief that paid them from the first qualified tour to heroes.

No team was ever raised the European Cup, which had to move in 15 games, and was not forced to cancel the first record deficit in three separate relationships. The leading power in Europe in the final match was appropriate, carrying a mini image of the struggle just to get there.

If they are flammable due to the size of the occasion or the strength of their opponent, they did not show it. Since Sliger, the North London residents have criticized the day of the match, two of this competition, accusing some teams and fighting against others. Bayern Munich (under the leadership of Jonas Idalal), Real Madrid and Lyon all the way, all looks far away, yet the tribulations of those losses appear to be strange.

The setbacks came to determine the arsenal this season. They fought from 2-0 to Real Madrid in the quarter-finals, and more amazing, from 2-1 to bottom against eight times the champions Lyon in the last four.

In the three before the final Wsl games, the Gunners team has shipped a total of 13 goals, crushed by Aston Villa and Brighton.

But the present behind the scenes was a reassuring calm. Personality of composure, consistency and honesty. The structure and process of Slegers was real healing forces on this group, and pushed a seismic shift from history makers to history makers.

He is now a team that is divided under the ancestor of Eidevall – which often criticizes its emotional decision in the end – united. Content with different ways and different patterns because they are part of a carefully created tactical plan.

“We know how good is,” Slegers was then reflected, and they still wear the same modest smile. “We knew that the momentum would be transformed, perhaps others were thinking of something else, but this is what we believed.

“At all stages, mental and flexibility, our belief was incredible.”

The team’s intention may be summarized in the best way by Captain Little, only two young Slegers, and the only survivors of the first European title: “I have always felt like our year.”

Her victory against such unsuccessful difficulties that can be said to make this moment the most Arsenal. Their fear has been rewarded. Slegers, a previous academic player herself, delivered the silver tools that pretended for a long time, and thus re -visualizing Arsenal’s place in sports history.

The side of the most decorating English football can call themselves European champions again.
