00:00:00Two legendary clubs celebrating their 125th birthday, our own Milan and Champions League holders FC Barcelona meet at the Johan Cruyff Stadium.
00:00:14Welcome to Catalonia for the fourth edition of the Joan Gamper Trophy.
00:00:19Gamper was the Swiss-born founder of Barcelona and this cup is the club's tribute to him.
00:00:27The men's first team have contested this piece of silverware since 1966 but the female counterparts didn't make their bout until 2021.
00:00:40And this season, this summer, it's the turn of the Rossoneri Milan to battle their prestigious opponents for the fourth edition of the Joan Gamper Trophy.
00:00:57And it's an extra special version as well because both sides were founded in 1899 so it really is a double celebration.
00:01:07Barcelona are calling this summer's festivities and the rest of this year the Gamper Festival.
00:01:15But also Milan are celebrating and commemorating their birth as well.
00:01:23It's another chance for fans to monitor the progress of Milan coach Susanne Backer's revolution, the new Rossoneri.
00:01:34Susanne joined us from Ajax where she won the league in 2023 and the cup in 2024.
00:01:45And as I say, it's a really good chance just to see how much progress or how far along progress is going.
00:01:55This tournament, the first opponents of Barcelona in this tournament for the women were indeed Italians.
00:02:03It was Juventus and they lost 6-0.
00:02:08Indeed the Blaugrana are yet to concede a goal in this fixture in over 270 minutes.
00:02:15So the Rossoneri have got a real challenge on their hands.
00:02:19But that's the way we like it.
00:02:23Very soon the teams will be coming out onto the pitch in the meantime.
00:02:31We can look at the number of fans here at the Johan Cruyff Stadium.
00:02:36There are a smattering of Milan supporters in case you were wondering.
00:02:40But naturally being a home match for Barcelona, the Milanisti are heavily outnumbered.
00:02:47It's a good surface and great conditions for football.
00:02:52You can see 28 degrees, humidity 71%.
00:02:56Now that is something to contend with.
00:02:59There may well be a cooling break for these players out here.
00:03:04Even the super fit, even top level athletes need to stay hydrated.
00:03:11You might be able to see in the middle of your screen,
00:03:15Laporta, the president of Barcelona, just talking to a colleague.
00:03:19Now he's facing us.
00:03:22No doubt the drums will continue throughout the match, the festivities.
00:03:28There will be a cheerleader with his big bass drum.
00:03:31Hopefully the director will show us some of the Milan fans.
00:03:34But he did before, until we haven't had a glance at them for a while.
00:03:39It's a new look Milan.
00:03:40There are one or two very interesting new players.
00:03:45And some new positions as well.
00:03:46Some familiar faces in slightly different positions.
00:03:52Certainly something to look out for.
00:03:54There have been some high profile exits from the Milan Feminile in the summer.
00:04:00As I say, some interesting new players have come in.
00:04:03And some other players who were perhaps fringe performers.
00:04:07Squad players in the seasons gone by.
00:04:10Are now going to play a much bigger part.
00:04:15While we're waiting, I dare say, let's go through the teams.
00:04:17Starting with Milan.
00:04:19Laura Giuliani in gold.
00:04:21The back four of Corrivisto.
00:04:25Suebi, Alison Suebi, Julie Piga and Sofia Angelica.
00:04:29Gosia is in midfield today.
00:04:31Just in front of the defence.
00:04:32A role that she played against Newcastle.
00:04:34And she will be doing it again today.
00:04:36Further ahead of her in midfield, Marta Mascarello and Ije.
00:04:41Then on one wing, Marinelli.
00:04:43The other, Dom Pig.
00:04:45And the lone striker in the starting team, at least, will be Ona Sevenius.
00:04:54Barcelona, for their part, have Gemma Font in gold.
00:04:57Number 24, Brugts.
00:04:59Number 4, Mappi Leon.
00:05:01Number 5, Fernandes.
00:05:03Number 30, Sidney Schnelterlieb.
00:05:06Number 28, Kanyo.
00:05:08Number 21, the English player, Walsh.
00:05:11Number 8, the captain, Marta.
00:05:13Number 9, Pina.
00:05:14Number 17, Padjor.
00:05:16Number 10, Caroline Graham.
00:05:19And now we'll have the Barca anthem.
00:05:27Really getting everybody in the mood.
00:05:34They tend to enjoy this fixture.
00:05:38The fans, as they often do.
00:05:48Fine effort.
00:05:50The Blaugrana anthem.
00:05:52Look at the emotion in his face.
00:05:54Really going for it.
00:05:57There you are, finishing with a punchy shout of Barca.
00:06:04Still going.
00:06:07Well, second verse.
00:06:10Rare that you get the second verse, but it is the Gamper Festival,
00:06:13so I guess it makes sense.
00:06:15But we'll continue with our preparation and describing the match.
00:06:22There is the captain, Marta.
00:06:26Fascinating watching the match unfold,
00:06:29because Barcelona really are the benchmark of women's football,
00:06:33along with Lyon, I would say.
00:06:36And that's where Milan want to be.
00:06:40Without a shadow of doubt.
00:06:45But his referee is Sandra González Jiménez.
00:06:49And there are the Milan players.
00:06:57There is La Porta, Joan Laporta, the president of Barcelona.
00:07:01And another chance to see the formations,
00:07:03another chance to look at them on the pitch.
00:07:08As I say, they are the reigning European champions.
00:07:12They are the team that Milan want to be contending with,
00:07:17want to be competing with,
00:07:20and to try and get close to them.
00:07:22And to be quite honest,
00:07:24I don't think they are the best team in the world.
00:07:28I think they are the best team in the world.
00:07:31Milan want to be contending with, want to be competing with,
00:07:35and to try and get close to them.
00:07:37And to be quite honest, going by recent years of this tournament,
00:07:41its inception as a women's tournament,
00:07:44scoring a goal, a draw, would be a fine achievement.
00:07:50Milan in the new white away kit,
00:07:52which is based on the club's cricketing heritage,
00:07:55because when it was founded, it was Milan Football and Cricket Club.
00:07:59There's the Englishman, Alfred Kilpin.
00:08:03And there's the joint team photo, which is always a nice thing to see.
00:08:12And now it looks like we will get the Milan line-up.
00:08:19A sense of defensive partnership of Swaby and Higa,
00:08:23fairly established.
00:08:30Not long now until kick-off.
00:08:33The two captains, Marta and Laura Giuliani, line-up.
00:08:37They are photographed with the referee and the refereeing staff.
00:08:49And now it looks like we will get the Milan line-up.
00:08:53A sense of defensive partnership of Swaby and Higa,
00:08:57fairly established.
00:09:04There is Sivenius, number 21.
00:09:14Milan have the kick-off.
00:09:18A couple of final checks for the referee.
00:09:28And we're underway.
00:09:32It is Barcelona-Milan in the fourth women's Joan Gamper Trophy.
00:09:37It's an early touch for the keeper.
00:09:40Tonight's captain, Laura Giuliani.
00:09:44Going up from the back, which is the fashion these days.
00:09:47For everybody.
00:10:06And now it looks like we will get the Milan line-up.
00:10:10And now it looks like we will get the Milan line-up.
00:10:16Not quite dealt with by Barcelona.
00:10:19John Peake already making a presence foul.
00:10:27Sofia will take the throw-in.
00:10:40Gosia, nice and tidy.
00:10:43Back to Swaby.
00:10:52Sivenius.
00:10:57Barcelona trying to play their way out of trouble, but give it away.
00:11:00Sivenius, good tussling, has she won the throw-in?
00:11:10Played forward.
00:11:15Milan with a good pass.
00:11:19Sivenius.
00:11:23Sivenius.
00:11:27Sivenius.
00:11:31Sivenius.
00:11:35Sivenius.
00:11:39Sivenius.
00:11:42Sivenius.
00:11:45Sivenius.
00:11:48Sivenius.
00:11:51Sivenius.
00:11:54Sivenius.
00:11:57Sivenius.
00:12:00Sivenius.
00:12:03Sivenius.
00:12:06Did Laura Giuliani get a hand to this?
00:12:11No, so maybe the defender.
00:12:14Maybe Pina felt it came off the defender's shin.
00:12:17But anyway, it's a goal kick to Milan, already taken.
00:12:25Possession of Sidney.
00:12:28Goes for it and hits the bar.
00:12:31Another early warning of Barcelona's firepower.
00:12:37Sidney Schertenlieb.
00:12:41Certainly got the crowd interested, didn't it?
00:12:44Not that they needed any encouragement, that was a brilliant shot.
00:12:47Bouncing off the face of the bar.
00:12:55Sante Dompik.
00:12:58Great run by Dompik. Still going.
00:13:01Plenty of players around him. Needs a bit of help.
00:13:07So now coming forward.
00:13:10So now coming forward.
00:13:13Graham.
00:13:16It's cut out.
00:13:19The job isn't over.
00:13:22Just manages to keep the Polish number 17, Pajor, away.
00:13:25Just manages to keep the Polish number 17, Pajor, away.
00:13:28And it's a goal.
00:13:31And it's a goal.
00:13:34So number 17, Pajor, away from the ball.
00:13:52Another throw in to Milan.
00:13:55Well, I say that, it's actually been awarded to Barcelona.
00:14:05All the way back to General Font.
00:14:27Graham.
00:14:35Pajor.
00:14:52Sofia Angeliki will take the throw in.
00:14:55Been very busy so far, Sofia.
00:15:05Tidy passing patterns from Barcelona.
00:15:08Tidy passing patterns from Barcelona.
00:15:22This is dangerous.
00:15:25This is dangerous.
00:15:28A couple of stepovers.
00:15:32Another piece of skill played into space.
00:15:35Another piece of skill played into space.
00:15:38They do try to score the perfect goal.
00:15:41They do try to score the perfect goal.
00:15:56The home fans not too impressed.
00:15:59The home fans not too impressed.
00:16:02By that challenge by Coivisto.
00:16:30Clever pass down the line.
00:16:33I think the ball has gone out.
00:16:36I think the ball has gone out.
00:16:39The referee and her assistants agree.
00:16:42Looks so comfortable on the ball.
00:16:45Looks so comfortable on the ball.
00:16:48All of these Barcelona players.
00:16:51All of these Barcelona players.
00:16:54The clever trick to send
00:16:57Coivisto the other way.
00:17:00Coivisto the other way.
00:17:03Barcelona head coach.
00:17:06Barcelona head coach.
00:17:09Sevilla is bundled over.

00:19:35A bit over hit.
00:19:38.
00:19:41.
00:19:44Those are the times we compose the match.
00:19:47Those are the times we compose the match.
00:19:50Lay that wide to Graham. Graham with a fierce shot. Palmed away by Lauda Giuliani.
00:20:12Good stop by Lauda.
00:20:20Did well to get away and make a bit of space, didn't she, Graham?
00:20:28First corner of the game goes to Barcelona.
00:20:31Lea Leon will take the set piece.
00:20:48Dealt with by Milan but there's a second clearance acquired and a third. It is booted away.
00:21:02What is going through Susanne Backers' mind?
00:21:28Walsh.
00:21:31Played over the top. It's a good idea but it's well watched and dealt with initially by Sofia.
00:21:49Now Nelly there just grabs her opponent and is sanctioned but I don't think she'll be cautioned.
00:22:01Graham and Leon over the ball.
00:22:10Defending on the agenda for Milan. In it comes. It's simple and it's gathered up safely by Lauda Giuliani.
00:22:40Right idea I think but in the end it wasn't close enough to the attackers to really be a problem for Lauda Giuliani.
00:23:03It wasn't really in that corridor of uncertainty.
00:23:10Given away and it's Barcelona on the attack. Played through but well watched and well defended by Alison Swaybe.
00:23:25Just a look at someone who had to save her teammates.
00:23:32Chante Donpig in a bit of trouble. Lauda Giuliani has to stretch and Milan just putting themselves under unnecessary pressure.
00:23:47Given away. Ije. Good pass by Ije. Mascarello. Mascarello feeds it out wide to Chante Donpig.
00:23:56This is good for Milan. Chante has to go backwards but at least Milan retain possession.
00:24:26Fernandes to Kanyo.
00:24:56Given away. Rare mistake but they get it straight back.
00:25:14This is danger. Borghista backing off. Turns and gets the shot off but it's charged down by a Milan defender.
00:25:23Savinius left to battle on her own. Brings down La Pileon. No hard feelings.
00:25:41Hasn't really had much to do. Hasn't had a chance to make an impact Una Savinius.
00:26:22Their Polish number 9 or rather number 17 but the number 9's goal.
00:26:32Milan have done well to hold out but Ewa Pajor makes it 1-0.
00:26:37Goal.
00:26:50Got between two defenders Pajor and a firm header into the goal. Beyond Lauda Giuliani.
00:26:58No chance to see it. The perfect cross has to be said.
00:27:08And headed down. They always say head the ball down so the keeper can't get on the end of it.
00:27:15But the keeper can't get there. Headed downwards. It's a textbook goal really. Textbook header.
00:27:22Party time for Barcelona. Barcelona 1, Milan 0.
00:27:52The drums strike up once again. Can Milan get back into this?
00:28:02Once again it's the dangerous Caroline Graham against Sofia.
00:28:19Headed over the top but it's cleared at the last moment by Julie Pigat.
00:28:34Well read by Ejet and she loses possession.
00:28:49Good again by Ejet. Rather swavy.
00:28:59Milan struggling really to have spells of possession. Continued spells of possession.
00:29:20Barcelona always appear to have a player extra but that was good by Koivistok.
00:29:26Great tackle by Sofia.
00:29:51It's played forward far too much on it. No chance for Maranelli or Savenius.
00:30:08Milan need to look after the ball a bit better. They won't have too much of it.
00:30:13Unfortunately predicting this fixture. In the meantime it's another chance but it's defended well by Swavy.
00:30:19And then it's saved by Laura Giuliani.
00:30:37A bit too close to the keeper from Kiera Walsh.
00:30:45A bit loose by Ejet.
00:30:48Giving Barcelona the ball.
00:30:51Loss of space. That's a great save by Laura Giuliani and quite rightly just shows a bit of anger with her defence in the midfield.
00:31:00Giving the ball a bit too easily, a bit too cheaply away.
00:31:05Good space though.
00:31:12Second corner for the ladies from Catalonia.
00:31:34Headed away by Ejet.
00:31:41Milan really under pressure in this first part of the first half.
00:31:48Another corner.
00:31:59Good delivery and it's a flicked attempt goalwards.
00:32:03Cleared by Milan. It's a Barcelona player down.
00:32:18Yeah, Dompik almost steals it from Barca.
00:32:33Well, I mean that statistic. We won't dwell on it for too long but no shots for Milan does tell a story.
00:32:38It's been that kind of match so far.
00:32:53Sofia takes no chances. Does well. Wins the goal kick.
00:33:05Nice idea after Sofia was watching it.
00:33:09And if Sofia hadn't got to it, I think Laura Giuliani would have.
00:33:15It's worth a few replays. Party football and this is a festival match.
00:33:23Let's just hope that Milan can produce a few party tricks as well.
00:33:28Marinelli wins the throw in.
00:33:53Nice.
00:34:16Another statistic really that was interesting but not massively encouraging from our point of view.
00:34:42Barcelona dominating the possession.
00:34:51In comes the cross. It drops to a Barcelona player and it's a miss.
00:34:55Comes off the bar and a let off for Milan.
00:34:59Again it was a dangerous Polish forward.
00:35:04Payot.
00:35:07Excellent work down the wing by Brukus.
00:35:24It's the second time Barcelona have hit the frame of the goal.
00:35:32Walsh.
00:35:39Clever pass down the line. Milan need to get back and get organised.
00:35:43And it's headed away. It's good defending by Julie Pigat.
00:35:52Shot there. She's had no chance to show her attacking prowess.
00:35:57But Milan in general haven't really had the opportunity.
00:36:00Savenius, the furthest forward but bundled out of it there.
00:36:07Graham against Sofia. Sofia watching the ball.
00:36:11Milan deal with it. Ije.
00:36:14Ije just overdoes it. Just tries to dribble past one too many.
00:36:20It's a first time shot but it's straight at Lauda Giuliani.
00:36:51That's a big one.
00:37:13Milan just need to get hold of the ball.
00:37:15I think while the scoreline is still less than intimidating.
00:37:22It's only 1-0.
00:37:24I think Milan still have plenty of hope of getting something out of this match.
00:37:28Even though it's a friendly.
00:37:30But they need to just keep hold of the ball better.
00:37:45Too far forward.
00:37:58Impossible for a teammate to pick up on.
00:38:02Between Coivisto and Marinelli.
00:38:05Not really the order of the day.
00:38:071-0 to Barcelona.
00:38:09The goal scored in the 18th minute by the Polish forward Pajor.
00:38:14They've hit the woodwork twice.
00:38:15The Catalan side.
00:38:17Milan are still in it.
00:38:31Graham just mishits her cross and it goes out harmlessly.
00:38:37But you have to say if you're playing full back against this Barcelona women's team.
00:38:41As Coivisto and Sofia are you know that you're going to have a very, very busy.
00:38:46And not necessarily fun evening.
00:39:05Swaybe.
00:39:34Now to Gianna Fernandez.
00:40:03And Milan just win the ball back.
00:40:21And put together some decent possessions.
00:40:23Defending right now.
00:40:24Takes a deflection.
00:40:25Off with Juli Piga.
00:40:28And skids off for another corner for Barcelona.
00:40:49Mappi.
00:40:50As the fans call her.
00:40:53Chanting Mappi's name.
00:40:54Maria Leon known as Mappi as she takes the corner.
00:41:04Hands over the corner.
00:41:05Taking duties though too.
00:41:07Caroline Graham.
00:41:11Experimental.
00:41:12I don't think she'll be getting any more corners.
00:41:15Can Milan make something happen?
00:41:18This could be promising.
00:41:19Chante Dompique.
00:41:20Out comes Font.
00:41:22You have to say she hasn't had much to do.
00:41:24Gemma Font.
00:41:25But she did that very well.
00:41:27Very decisively.
00:41:32Barcelona wanted a free kick.
00:41:33But it's not going to happen.
00:41:37That's over the top pass to Dompique.
00:42:14Back to Giuliani.
00:42:28Swaybe.
00:42:42Mascarello.
00:42:47Now to Giuliani.
00:42:53Juli Piga.
00:43:03Sofia wins it high.
00:43:04Does well.
00:43:06Sofia still going.
00:43:07She's brought down rather cynically.
00:43:10In a non-friendly match that would probably be a yellow card.
00:43:22Good powerful run there.
00:43:23But fouled by Caroline Graham.
00:43:29And we have a cooling break.
00:43:31As I say, the temperatures certainly merit rehydration for both sides.
00:43:38Mappi having a conversation with the boss.
00:43:42No doubt Susan Bakker will be issuing instructions as well to her players.
00:43:56And there we go.
00:43:57Some tactical tweaks.
00:43:59Out comes the mini pitch with the markers.
00:44:04Susan Bakker.
00:44:06Hands on.
00:44:10And likewise the Barcelona boss with his little clipboard pitch and his marker pen.
00:44:30The drinks break becomes a coaching break.
00:44:44Intense look in the eyes of the Barcelona boss.
00:44:50We'll be back to action I'm sure very soon.
00:45:06Once again it's a chance to look at Bakker.
00:45:08She's still going through a few formation tweaks.
00:45:11I think the plan has to be to get more of the ball.
00:45:17Just to have some more possession because this Barcelona side don't give you much time on the ball.
00:45:25And you have to be really, really good with it.
00:45:28You have to be very, very effective let's say in possession.
00:45:41That's another chance to see the goal.
00:45:55Back to action no doubt soon.
00:46:00Players back on the pitch.
00:46:02Payot the scorer of the only goal so far.
00:46:08But as I say, 1-0 against this Barcelona side is not a terrible result.
00:46:18Not a bad effort and it's not over yet.
00:46:22And it's into the area.
00:46:23The whistle's gone for offside.
00:46:30Barcelona need to get more of Gloria Marinelli.
00:46:34And Chanter Dompig on the ball.
00:46:36Need to create a few chances for Una Servenius.
00:46:53Graham twisting and turning causing all kinds of problems to Gosia.
00:47:06Walsh.
00:47:14Graham crosses in but overheats it.
00:47:17It would have dropped to the other side to Brut.
00:47:24Step over is Galore.
00:47:25But he still has to be very diligent.
00:47:28The cross comes in but it's gathered up by Laura Giuliani who is watching it well.
00:47:48Well Una Servenius has had very little time on the ball.
00:48:06Had very few chances really.
00:48:11Barcelona need to find a way to try and make their attackers more of a presence in this game.
00:48:30Barcelona who beat Lyon in the Champions League final earlier on this year.
00:48:35In the last season.
00:48:40Sofia there.
00:48:41Stopping Graham.
00:48:43Fans home.
00:48:44Fans of course felt it was a foul.
00:48:46Takes an affection.
00:48:47Marta Mascarello almost gets her wires crossed but no harm done.
00:49:06Well it came off the post.
00:49:07There you go.
00:49:08Three times Barcelona have hit the frame of the goal.
00:49:12Incredible.
00:49:13A bit of luck smiling upon Milan.
00:49:39Great footwork.
00:49:40In goes the shot and it's over the bar.
00:49:42They're really certainly enjoying themselves.
00:49:45Barcelona it has to be said.
00:49:58They do come at you from all angles don't they.
00:50:28Eject can't be done.
00:50:30Can Milan hold on to the ball.
00:50:32Put together some meaningful possession.
00:50:33Swaybe.
00:51:04It's a good pass.
00:51:09Flag's gone up though.
00:51:10But this is a decent spell.
00:51:13It's a mini spell you could say for Trossoneri.
00:51:30Graham.
00:51:36Well defended by Julie Piquart.
00:51:56Fernandez with the throw in.
00:52:05Graham against Sofia.
00:52:07Cross comes in.
00:52:08Looped in the air.
00:52:10Swaybe clears it but it's gathered up on the other side by Pina.
00:52:20Sidney as well.
00:52:23Brings a corner.
00:52:24Another corner for Milan.
00:52:25Or rather for Barcelona.
00:52:28Number five.
00:52:41Piquart defending well there.
00:53:01In comes the corner.
00:53:02It's towards the penalty spot.
00:53:03It's headed away well by Eje.
00:53:06Dompik.
00:53:09Dompik tries to take on a mark up.
00:53:11Does well.
00:53:12Needs some help though.
00:53:15Eventually she succumbs to lack of support.
00:53:19Barcelona have the ball back.
00:53:21Clever pass.
00:53:22But brilliantly defended.
00:53:26Eje there.
00:53:28Swaybe.
00:53:45Pina plays it through.
00:53:47Cleared but not very well by Piquart.
00:53:52Pina once more.
00:53:55Sofia.
00:53:56A bit tentative from Milan.
00:53:58That's a bit better for a clearance.
00:54:01Possession back with the team.
00:54:05From Catalonia.
00:54:11Approaching halftime.
00:54:13Barcelona 1-0 Milan.
00:54:28In terms of possession and attempts on target,
00:54:30you have to say fairly predictable.
00:54:33Barcelona are pretty close to the finished product.
00:54:38This is a new Milan.
00:54:41The score is fairly encouraging I dare say.
00:54:44You don't want to tempt Providence.
00:54:461-0.
00:54:51Certainly nothing to be scoffed at.
00:54:54As I said in previous years,
00:54:56teams have lost six.
00:54:58This fixture 6-0, 5-0.
00:55:06A bit overzealous.
00:55:09Not quite V-stop.
00:55:21And Emma goes into the book.
00:55:24First player to be cautioned in this match.
00:55:33She has really had her work cut out.
00:55:35As has Sofia on the other side.
00:55:38Thankless task being a fullback against this kind of team.
00:55:53A minute and a half to go.
00:55:56Milan defending outside the 18-yard box.
00:56:05Diving header.
00:56:06Well defended.
00:56:13Settled for a continuing throw-in.
00:56:32Mappi organising.
00:56:40Back to Maria Mappi-Leon.
00:56:54Into the centre and it's headed down.
00:56:56Headed towards the far post.
00:56:58But it's off target from Caroline Graham.
00:57:02Another escape, dare I say, for Milan.
00:57:19Great work from Pina.
00:57:21Sends in the teasing cross.
00:57:23And you would expect better, you have to say.
00:57:26Obviously everyone can make a mistake.
00:57:29But it was a really good chance to get it on target.
00:57:34The last few seconds.
00:57:36Referee González Jiménez blows her whistle and it is 1-0 to Barcelona.
00:57:41They've had the lion's share of possession.
00:57:43Made lots of chances but they've only scored one.
00:57:46So it's not over yet.
00:57:47Be sure to join us for the second half.
00:57:53Welcome back to the Estadi Joan Cruyff
00:57:56Welcome back to the second half of this Joan Gamper trophy.
00:57:59The score at the end of it was Barcelona, the hosts won, Milan nil.
00:58:04And the Catalan certainly had the better of that first half.
00:58:07However, it's worth remembering they only put the ball in the net once.
00:58:12So it's a 1-0 lead which is very, very fragile.
00:58:23And anything can happen.
00:58:25Can Milan find an equaliser?
00:58:29There will be a change, there has been a change for FC Barcelona.
00:58:34Kiki has come on.
00:58:36We remain to discover who she's replaced.
00:58:44Likewise it appears to be a switch for the Rosso Neri.
00:58:54And we're underway, it's Barcelona who kick us off.
00:58:58Second half of this Joan Gamper trophy.
00:59:08And Milan just put together some more meaningful possession in this second half.
00:59:13Because the first half, if we're honest, was all Barcelona.
00:59:28It caused a lot of problems.
00:59:31Down the left, Ije.
00:59:58And a first touch.
01:00:07It's a good cross and it's dangerous.
01:00:09It's an odd choice, I'd say, unorthodox from Payot to Hede
01:00:13when she could have perhaps played it in with her feet.
01:00:16But she went for the headed attempt.
01:00:28You see there the diving header.
01:00:33It's another corner for the Blaugrana.
01:00:40Taken by Mappi.
01:00:56Headed over the bar.
01:00:58Swaybe did enough just, I think, to put Kanyo off.
01:01:14They do like that move, don't they?
01:01:16Ball out wide to Caroline Graham who puts in the fine cross.
01:01:38Back to Laura Giuliani.
01:01:52Ije has to go backwards to Laura.
01:01:59Julie Pigard.
01:02:06That's a great idea.
01:02:08A clever pass looking for Gloria Marinelli.
01:02:12A bit more like it.
01:02:14Kind of a play required from Milan just to make things happen a bit.
01:02:17Just to basically give Gemma Font, the Barcelona keeper, something to do.
01:02:44Low driven shot off the woodwork yet again.
01:02:47Barcelona have hit the post or the crossbar four times in this match.
01:02:54As I say, Fortune really is smiling on Milan.
01:03:06Supposed to cross and this time she went for target herself.
01:03:10And it came off the bottom of Sofia's boots.
01:03:12The base of the post and then bounced back into the area.
01:03:21Marinelli.
01:03:26That's a bit short and it's dangerous but Laura Giuliani was alert to the danger.
01:03:51Not much to do for Guna Servenius.
01:04:21Back to Mappi.
01:04:43Very tidy in possession Barcelona.
01:04:49Pena plays it forward.
01:04:51Bruggs with a cross which was not really close enough to any of her teammates.
01:04:57Gathered up by Giuliani.
01:05:00Servenius can't get to that.
01:05:17Pena's shot, she doesn't really get a proper hold of it.
01:05:46Swaybe to Gosia.
01:06:45Marinelli.
01:06:48Doesn't quite find a teammate.
01:06:51Number 14 is a substitute by the way for Milan who's come on.
01:06:55In case you were wondering it is Silvia Rubio.
01:06:58Very tidy player.
01:07:06I think it's Marta Mascarello who's come off.
01:07:18Pena.
01:07:22Off the heel of a teammate.
01:07:39Pena.
01:07:40Great skill by Pena.
01:07:42Getting past all covers and goes for the shot and it goes wide.
01:07:45Really good run by the number 9 for Barcelona.
01:07:49Cutting through the Milan defence.
01:07:51It has to be said.
01:07:55Really skillful.
01:07:56Away from one, away from Gloria too.
01:07:58And then finally from Alison Swaybe.
01:08:04Quick feet.
01:08:05Brilliant attempt.
01:08:07Was it a fine save by Lauda Giuliani?
01:08:09And it could well have been.
01:08:26Back with Barcelona.
01:08:27Pena.
01:08:29Pena stabs it through.
01:08:30Milan want offside but they're ignored.
01:08:36They seem to find a player in space so easily don't they Barcelona?
01:08:40Punched away by Lauda and then headed away by Gosia.
01:08:43Maragnelli goes down.
01:08:44Referee says play on.
01:08:47Pena loses the ball momentarily.
01:08:50But can Milan put together a decent break?
01:09:07Well, another stat that makes great reading if you're a Barcelona fan.
01:09:11But not so great for Milan.
01:09:19Constant pressure now from Barcelona.
01:09:23Graham against Sofia.
01:09:25Sofia does well though.
01:09:27Sofia concentrates.
01:09:30Pena reaches the ball all the way and guides it off.
01:09:40I think it went down very well with the fans.
01:09:44But this intervention from Sofia I think deserves credit as well.
01:09:52A rather Barcelona.
01:10:09Headed up in the air.
01:10:10Almost serves as a flick on by I think it was Alison Swaybe.
01:10:20A painful one for Pena.
01:10:30Pena.
01:10:34Squeezed through back to the number nine.
01:10:36Pena comes off.
01:10:40A Milan player.
01:10:41Emma Coivisto.
01:10:48Why did it hit her?
01:10:55Stomach I think.
01:10:56Either way a painful one.
01:11:09Hopefully she's OK to continue.
01:11:35Penalty spot and it goes beyond everyone.
01:11:40Sofia tries to break free but it's a firm tackle.
01:11:44But fair from her Barcelona opponent.
01:12:33Goal.
01:12:59Gosia.
01:13:02Gosia.
01:13:04To Chanter Dompik.
01:13:08Ije does well to win it there.
01:13:11Pena.
01:13:39Swaybe.
01:13:51Silvio Rubio all the way back to Laura Giuliani.
01:14:031-0 to Barcelona.
01:14:04The goal scored by their Polish attacker Pajor.
01:14:08The 18th minute.
01:14:10Have hit the post or bar four times as well.
01:14:34It's one back by Pajor.
01:14:37Pajor beyond everyone then plays it out wide.
01:14:40Graham against Sofia once again.
01:14:42The shot from Graham and it's turned around the post.
01:14:46Saved well by Laura Giuliani.
01:14:52And a very, very busy evening, isn't she, Laura?
01:15:21Corner number eight for the hosts.
01:15:23Edging towards double figures for corners.
01:15:31Comes to Wade, drops to Marta.
01:15:35Can't find a target, then it's booted away by Silvia.
01:16:04The shot comes off Silvia Rubio.
01:16:07Marinelli helping out in defence.
01:16:08And then cleared by Koi Visto.
01:16:13This is promising.
01:16:14It's great work by Una.
01:16:16Savenius.
01:16:17Savenius goes into the penalty area.
01:16:19Can she convert?
01:16:20And it's over.
01:16:22First real chance of the game for Milan.
01:16:30Una, Savenius.
01:16:34Heading towards goal.
01:16:43Is under pressure.
01:16:45Went for the roof of the net.
01:16:47Fired it over.
01:16:52What a story that would have been.
01:17:05Charged down Vicky.
01:17:07Bit of pinball.
01:17:09Graham with another delicate touch.
01:17:11That's Gloria Marinelli.
01:17:12But she's surrounded by Barcelona players.
01:17:15Does well to win the free kick.
01:17:22A chance for Una.
01:17:24It's just a glimpse of Milan's attacking potential.
01:17:42Multiple changes of foot now for Barcelona.
01:17:45Off comes Gianna.
01:17:52Pina as well.
01:18:01And Graham who's certainly given Milan a torrid time.
01:18:11I'm very sure Sofia will be thrilled to see the back of Caroline Graham.
01:18:31Hopefully the director will tell us who has come on.
01:18:34Seems they're quite fond of it.
01:18:38Statistics for shots on target.
01:18:40But we'll wait and see if they can let us know who's come on.
01:18:43In the meantime it's Milan with a good attack.
01:18:46Ijet stretches out a leg and commits the foul.
01:19:06Cagno is the player who was tripped there.
01:19:09And now Milan will make their changes.
01:19:12Off comes Sofia Angelica.
01:19:20And Gloria Martinelli as well comes off.
01:19:25Nadine Sorelli comes on.
01:19:31And now Milan will make their changes.

01:26:52Ejet rounded down and loses to her counterpart, a number 19 that is, for Barcelona, Vicky.

01:27:21Kanyot, one of the players coming off, as is Mapi Leon.
01:27:28Mapi Leon.
01:27:48Marta as well makes way.
01:27:55So uh, lots of substitutions.
01:27:57Martina González, number 42, Emilka as well.
01:28:14Lots of turnover in the Barcelona ranks.
01:28:27Milán wins it back though.
01:28:47It's beautifully done.

01:30:33with a good good shot A bridge was used by Laura Giuliani.
01:30:35with a good good shot
01:30:37.
01:30:39Very good footwork,
01:30:41very good footwork,
01:30:43but a good drive towards the far post.
01:30:45but a good drive towards the far post.
01:30:47Keiko leaves it to
01:30:49Keiko leaves it to
01:30:51Milika leaves it for Vicky.
01:31:07Here comes the corner, not properly cleared.
01:31:10Drops to Engen.
01:31:13Or rather, Milika.
01:31:21Looks like we will have a hydration break, a cooling break if you prefer.
01:31:38And to be at this stage of the game, approaching the last chapter with only a one goal deficit, is a real credit to Milan.
01:31:54Obviously the name of the game is winning, it's all about victories, but we have to say, if we're honest, in the sense that Barcelona are the current European champions and Milan is a new project, you have to say it's not a bad scoreline.
01:32:24No one should, at this level, at professional levels, you don't celebrate defeats, but you take encouragement from them if they're good performances.
01:32:35We're still insisting, we're here.
01:32:38No, it's just that they've put the microphone in the second part. Someone has realised it's late.
01:33:05This is the goal that, well, I think it was onside. I have to say, if this has been an official match, a tournament match you could say, Champions League, Women's Champions League, I'm sure Barcelona would be very, very upset that that was disallowed.
01:33:21But the fact that it happened in the Gamper Trophy is probably going to be less painful for them to pallet.
01:33:27Off comes Unesuvenis.
01:33:30The substitutes include Nadia Nadim.
01:33:37And Cernoia.
01:33:42And there is Cernoia.
01:33:49I think Vigilucci as well came on.
01:33:57There is Nadia Nadim on the nine.
01:34:01A cosmopolitan attacker.
01:34:26Just out of reach for Brugts.
01:34:39One of the few players now to have played the match from start to this point.
01:34:45And there is confirmation of Nadia Nadim on for Unesuvenis.
01:34:57Well anticipated by Swaybe.
01:35:19Swaybe once again in the right place at the right time.
01:35:26And there is Cernoia.
01:35:56Brugts goes down and stays down for Barcelona.
01:36:00Colliding with Sarastokic.
01:36:14And another slight substitution for the Blaugrana.
01:36:26And some very popular people entering the fray.
01:36:42Captain Zambard.
01:36:49Passes to Alexia, the number 11.
01:36:52You can hear the huge reception for her.
01:36:54And Aitana coming on as well.
01:36:59And the fans start their songs for those two players in particular.
01:37:12Two very popular members of this squad.
01:37:22First time effort and another brilliant save by Laura Giuliani.
01:37:28She is having such an influential match.
01:37:37Shot there was from Segura.
01:37:52Here comes the corner.
01:37:55Ninth corner for Barcelona not cleared.
01:38:06Well, Laura Giuliani nine saves today.
01:38:10Really busy but satisfactory day at the office for Laura Giuliani.
01:38:16And of course it's not over yet.
01:38:22Shot there Dompik.
01:38:26Nadia Nadim to the area.
01:38:29Still going.
01:38:31Brings it back.
01:38:32Stays on her feet. Could have gone down.
01:39:21A bit of a risk there, Laura Giuliani, but she gets away with it.
01:39:29Made the thing to Alexia to chase.
01:39:49She puts in the cross.
01:39:50Has the ball gone out of play? It hasn't.
01:39:52So it's a defeat to Aitana.
01:39:55Great skill by Aitana, but really good defending.
01:39:57Well watched all the way.
01:40:01Now they're into double figures, four corners at Barcelona.
01:40:04And it's another stop by Laura Giuliani.
01:40:28She has been fantastic this evening.
01:40:35Here comes Alexia who got on the end of it.
01:40:45Alexia with a clever attempt.
01:40:53Nadia Nadim.
01:40:58With a lack of communication there.
01:41:00Comes back with Barcelona.
01:41:04Coming forward, but it's well charged down.
01:41:31So really defending well there.
01:41:33Milana.
01:41:36Coming through this challenge fairly well so far.
01:41:39You have to say all the defenders that have played this match,
01:41:42whether from the start or as substitutes,
01:41:45have got that slightly haunted look on their faces of being under immense pressure.
01:41:50But they're doing well.
01:41:52And there is one of those players, Alison Swaybe.
01:41:54Fabulous today.
01:41:55And she's replaced by Nicola Karczewska.
01:42:02Off comes Alison.
01:42:12Information of the number 10 joining the fray, Nicola.
01:42:24Another corner for Barcelona.
01:42:27Punched away by Laura Giuliani.
01:42:32Moving to the way, into the direction of Sara Stokic.
01:42:39Janoya flies in, does well.
01:43:03Loz is supposed to run into.
01:43:05This could be dangerous.
01:43:08MartÃnez pulls it back.
01:43:10Who's there to pick it up?
01:43:13Mati.
01:43:14Clever pass in, but it's cut out.
01:43:17Nadia Nadim is pushed over.
01:43:20But no foul apparently.
01:43:3310 from distance.
01:43:35And it's into the net.
01:43:37Barcelona have their second goal.
01:43:40And it's scored by the immensely popular Alexia.
01:43:46And all the resistance of this second half is finally broken.
01:43:53You can see how much the locals, the home fans, enjoyed that.
01:43:57It was a fine goal.
01:43:59The kind of goal you tend to get mainly in friendlies.
01:44:05Laura Giuliani had been virtually unbeatable in this second half.
01:44:13But Alexia Rudellas, the superstar, makes it 2-0.
01:44:21Fine left foot strike.
01:44:29Really good.
01:44:32Actually from just inside the Barcelona half.
01:44:40Barcelona 2, Milan 0.
01:44:45And that's a goal I'm sure she'll remember for a long time.
01:44:49It's cut out.
01:44:50But one back by this Barça team who are irrepressible.
01:44:53Kika plays it out.
01:44:55It's a goal I'm sure she'll remember for a long time.
01:45:03But that's a goal she'll remember for a long time.
01:45:10It's cut out.
01:45:11But one back by this Barcelona team who are irrepressible.
01:45:14Kika plays it out.
01:45:15Chica plays it out to Patty Alexia down the line.
01:45:28That's another save now back to normal service.
01:45:31You could say from Lauda Giuliani.
01:45:33No saves to make for Jemma Fonts and 11-4 Lauda.
01:45:48Just goes to show how busy it has been.
01:45:51Barcelona really got their tails up now.
01:45:54It's great defending.
01:46:03Another chance to see the goal.
01:46:06Spotted Lauda Giuliani off her line and a really great goal.
01:46:21Headed away.
01:46:23Back to Aitana.
01:46:34It's a well read though, well cut out by Sorelli.
01:46:40Sorelli once again the enviable, unenviable task of trying to stop Alexia producing magic.
01:46:53Dombi.
01:46:59Can Milan get their names on the score sheet before they whistle?
01:47:03Referee blows the full time whistle.
01:47:05Nicola.
01:47:07Gosha.
01:47:09Something to chase for Nadia Nadim.
01:47:14The referee blows the whistle.
01:47:16Are you imagining for an offside?
01:47:19Nadia Nadim.
01:47:21I think she was saying no way.
01:47:30Look for a second.
01:47:31Milan had a chance to at least half a deficit and make it a 2-1.
01:47:47It's quiet now.
01:47:48I think the fans are having a breather now after the ecstasy of that goal from Alexia.
01:47:58And there is the final whistle from the referee, Gonzalez Jimenez.
01:48:02And Barcelona have their celebration and their party.
01:48:06But it was not easy and a respectable 2-0 scoreline for Milan
01:48:11considering many clubs have come here and been swept away by the imperious Blaugrana.
01:48:17The final score here from the Estadio Johan Cruyff is FC Barcelona 2, AC Milan 0.
01:48:23Thank you for watching and good night.
