Barcelona cruised to a 4-0 win over OL Lyonnes in Saturday's UEFA Women's Champions League final in Oslo, clinching their fourth continental title. We take a look at two stats for each team.

Barca back to winning ways

21 - Barcelona did their damage in the second half, with all four of their goals coming after the break as they overwhelmed OL Lyonnes. In what was their sixth straight appearance in the UWCL showpiece, the Catalans were ruthless in front of goal, scoring from a third of their attempts, and all but one of their shots on target. Barca also won all competitions available to them this term, completing an incredible season. In the knockout rounds, they scored 21 times, the most of any team in the group phase era.

1 - With the victory, Barca join Lyonnes and Eintracht Frankfurt as the only sides to have triumphed in the UWCL on four or more occasions. Along with the previously mentioned sides, FCR Duisburg and Arsenal, Barca are the fifth different team to hold a winning record in the Women's Champions League final. Another impressive feat by the club is the fact they went undefeated in the tournament this campaign. Holding a record of 9-2-0, Barcelona became the first team in the group phase era to win the title without defeat.

Lyonnes rue missed chances

3 - Record winners OL Lyonnes missed out on the chance to increase their lead for the most titles, suffering a heavy defeat in the Norwegian capital. They were not without chances though. In fact, they had more shots in the 90 minutes than Barcelona (14-12). Lindsey Heaps even put the ball in the back of the net 14 minutes in, only for it to be ruled out by VAR for offside.

L'OL do not usually concede so many goals in any match, let alone a UWCL clash. But this was the third time they had conceded four or more goals in a UWCL game. Arsenal were the only other side to do so beforehand.

4 - Perhaps Lyonnes had the result coming - after all, they were not overly impressive in the knockout stages. They needed extra time to beat Wolfsburg in the quarter-finals, and a late goal to get the better of Arsenal earlier this month. This time, the French champions were not as lucky. In what was their 12th UWCL final, Lyonnes have joined Wolfsburg on four defeats at this stage. This is also the fourth straight year they have gone without winning the trophy, the longest period since 2015/16.
