La Champions League femenina cambiará de formato el próximo curso, una temporada 2025/26 donde el Arsenal defenderá el título conquistado en Lisboa y donde España tendrá tres representantes: Barcelona, Real Madrid y Atlético de Madrid. La competición comenzará el 30 de julio, apenas tres días después de echar el cierre a la Eurocopa y finalizará el 22-24 de mayo de 2026 con una final disputada en el Ullevaal Stadion de Oslo.
La 25ª edición del torneo trae consigo una nueva hoja de ruta. Se acaba con el sistema de fase de grupos, vigente desde la temporada 2021/22, para dar paso a una liguilla -como este curso hemos visto en la competición masculina- en la que cada uno de los equipos clasificados tendrá que jugar con seis equipos diferentes, siendo la mitad en casa y la mitad a domicilio. Los cuatro primeros se clasificarán para cuartos de final, mientras que los equipos que ocupen los puestos del 5º al 12º disputarán una eliminatoria de play-off a doble partido para asegurarse el pase a cuartos y los clasificados del 13º al 18º quedarán eliminados.
Directas a la ‘liguilla’

Los equipos clasificados directamente para la liguilla son el Arsenal, como vigente campeón; amén de Barcelona, Chelsea, Olympique Lyonnais, Bayern de Múnich, Juventus y Benfica como campeones de sus respectivas Ligas; y PSG y Wolfsburgo como subcampeones de los países con mejor coeficiente. Real Madrid y Atlético de Madrid no jugarán hasta la tercera ronda de la fase previa, al igual que el París FC, Eintracht Frankfurt, Sporting CP y otro equipo aún por confirmar.
Para la segunda ronda de la fase previa están clasificados el Rosengård, Slavia de Praga, Twente, Fortuna Hjørring, Vålerenga, St. Pölten, Vorskla Poltava, Dinamo Minsk, Breiðablik, Hibernian, BIIK Shymkent, Young Boys, Crvena Zvezda, Vllaznia, Apollon Ladies, OH Leuven, HJK, SFK 2000, Ferencváros, Farul Constanța y Mura por parte de los campeones; y Manchester United, Braga, Inter de Milán, Roma, BK Häcken, Hammarby, Sparta de Praga, PSV Eindhoven, Braan, Austria de Viena, Metalist 1925 Kharkiv, Valur, Glasgow City, Aktobe y el segundo del campeonato danés en el camino de los clasificados por sus Ligas.
Desde la primera ronda de la fase previa partirán el GKS Katowice, Agram, Gintra, Athlone Town, Mitrovica, ABB Fomget, AEK Athens, Kiryat Gat, Lanchkhuti, Spartak Myjava, NSA Sofia, Racing Union, Cardiff City, Flora, Cliftonville, Riga FC, Swieqi United, Agarista Anenii Noi, Ljuboten, NSÍ Runavík, Pyunik, Neftchi Baku, Lions Gibraltar y el campeón de Montenegro.
Renovar el proyecto
Pere Romeu, en el banquillo del José Alvalade en la final de la Champions.
La derrota del Barcelona en Lisboa invita a la reflexión. Es cierto que el conjunto azulgrana sólo ha perdido cuatro partidos (de 47) esta temporada -ante Levante y Real Madrid en Liga; frente a Manchester City y Arsenal en la Champions League-, pero la sensación es de haber mostrado su peor versión en el momento que más penalizaba. Aunque tiene en su mano la conquista del triplete nacional -el 7 de junio disputa la final de la Copa de la reina ante el Atlético de Madrid en el estadio El Alcoraz de Huesca-, el fin del reinado en Europa ha hecho mella en un equipo que ha acostumbrado a sus aficionados -y detractores- a la excelencia.
El proyecto azulgrana seguirá liderado por Pere Romeu, con contrato hasta el 30 de junio de 2026 y uno de los más señalados de la final de Lisboa. A pesar de que el equipo no dio la sensación de carburar en ningún momento -salvando el primer cuarto de hora del segundo acto-, el técnico no encontró recursos ni piezas para cambiar el rumbo del partido. Con empate en el marcador quitó a Pina, una de las más incisivas en ataque, para dar entrada a una Salma que no aportó mucho; y con desventaja se limitó a cambiar a la lesionada Mapi y Rolfö, dos defensas, dando entrada a Engen y Brugts, que tampoco mostraron soluciones.
La dirección deportiva liderada por Marc Vives sigue trabajando en los retoques de cara al próximo curso. Tres jugadoras acaban contrato, Gemma Font, Marta Torrejón e Ingrid Syrstad Engen; y cuatro regresarán tras estar cedidas este curso, Martina Fernández, Lucía Corrales, Giulia Dragoni y Bruna Vilamala. Amén de decidir el futuro de estas jugadoras, llegarán al club jugadoras de calidad y experiencia contrastada. A falta de oficialidad el nombre más repetido es el de Laia Aleixandri, que ya se despidió del Manchester City, pero visto lo visto en la capital lusa harán falta más piezas para que el puzzle vuelva a encajar.

LeBrun: Nobody demands perfection from Stuart Skinner — but this is the version the Oilers need
EDMONTON — The harsh view of Stuart Skinner is that he’s like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re going to get.Brilliance on some nights, not so much on others.The more positive view is that there’s also a chance you’re seeing the most confident version of the Edmonton Oilers netminder, timed up perfectly with the most crucial time of the year.AdvertisementThe Oilers are two wins away from a return trip to the Stanley Cup Final, courtesy of Skinner’s outstanding performance in their Game 3 victory over Dallas on Sunday afternoon, and perhaps the last question mark about this seasoned playoff roster is being answered.Perhaps. Just not 100 percent for sure. Because if there’s one comment that gets reiterated the most when I talk to people with other NHL teams about the Oilers surging in this playoff run, it’s […]

Shohei Ohtani’s first time pitching to hitters as a Dodger is a success: ‘He’s a top-end starter’
Deesha Thosar MLB Writer <!--> NEW YORK – For so long, the Los Angeles Dodgers could only imagine what it would be like to watch Shohei Ohtani pitching off a big-league mound, facing major-league hitters, while wearing the Dodger blue. It’s been a long and unfamiliar journey for Los Angeles’ two-way star — and there’s more uncharted territory ahead — but finally, it’s beginning to feel real."I've gotten so used to seeing him as a hitter," Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. "So to see him on the mound just solely as a pitcher, it was different. And certainly exciting for all of us."On Sunday afternoon at Citi Field, Ohtani faced major-league hitters for the first time since his September 2023 elbow surgery. If Ohtani was nervous, it was impossible to tell. His patented easy-going attitude was on display throughout the […]
