Alexia Putellas fired Barcelona into the lead with a penalty five minutes shy of half-time. Irene Paredes doubled their advantage eight minutes into the second half before Aitana Bonmati made it 3-0 four minutes later. Mariona Caldentey made it 4-0 a minute before the end of regular time, with Ana-Maria Crnogorcevic putting the final nail in the coffin and making it 5-0 in injury time.
The result means that Barcelona have taken 12 points from a possible 12 so far in Group C, winning all four games they’ve contested and scoring 15 goals in the process. They’ve conceded just once, and are three points clear of Arsenal Women in second.
