The women's Champions League has reached the quarterfinals and Wolfsburg will try to advance to the next stage but this will be difficult task. On Wednesday, arguably the best team in the world currently travels to the Autostadt. The group stage of this year's Champions League didn't go as hoped. Wolfsburg got off to a terrible start, losing 0-1 to Roma and 0-2 to Lyon. Galatasaray was their likeable opponent, winning both matches 5-0. After a 6-1 victory in the return leg against Roma, the Bundesliga club was back on track but the return leg against Lyon brought another 0-1 defeat. Barcelona is the two-time defending champion, having won the Champions League in 2023 and 2024 and has been in the final for four years. The Catalans had surprisingly started their preliminary round with a 0-2 defeat against Manchester City. Then they show their class, 9-0 and 3-0 against Hammarby, 7-0 and 4-1 against St. Polten and a 3-0 win in the return match against Man. City.
