Their previous defeat was in June 2021. They will face Lyon in the final on 21 May after the French club beat PSG 2-1 in the second leg of their semi-final, giving them a 5-3 aggregate win.<br \/>\nBar\u00e7a dominated the first half in Wolfsburg but lacked a finishing touch. But Wolfsburg shattered that aura of invincibility in the second half. Tabea Wassmuth scored in the 47th minute with a long-range strike, her 10th Champions League goal this season bringing her level with the visitors\u2019 Alexia Putellas as the leading scorer in the competition.<\/p>\n<p>The midfielder Jill Roord then doubled the lead in the 59th with a low drive into the bottom corner.<\/p>\n<p>Wolfsburg knocked out Barcelona in the 2020 semi-finals and the 2014 quarter-finals, but came up short this time. The Barcelona goalkeeper Sandra Pa\u00f1os turned striker Ewa Pajor\u2019s low effort around the post in the 89th minute in a frantic finish.<\/p>\n<p>The holders are seeking to repeat their treble of last season.
