Barça kicked off a new edition of the Women's Champions League on Wednesday with a rout of Paris FC (5-2). The Blaugranes, who play this Saturday at Logroño's field (16:30, TV3), are the main favorites for the European throne, but they continue to represent an oasis in the rest of the Spanish state. The Liga F began its fifth season as a professional competition just last August. Since then, growth has been exponential, but there is still a long way to go.

A giant step forward for the professionalisation of women's football. After months of negotiations, Luis Rubiales, president of the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), will announce this Tuesday salary equality between the women's and men's national teams, retroactively. Spain thus takes another step forward in the recognition of its players, who are candidates to win the European Championship which will be held in July in the United Kingdom.
