Arsenal Women and Wolfsburg Women square off in the second leg of the UEFA Women's Champions League semifinal on Monday (May 1). The tie is finely balanced, with the first leg in Germany last week ending 2-2 and Arsenal showing their grit to recover from a two-goal deficit.
Ewa Pajor and Sveindis Jonsdottir had found the back of the net to give Wolfsburg a two-goal lead in the 24th minute. Rafaelle Souza halved the deficit on the stroke of half-time before Stina Blackstenius restored parity in the 69th minute.
Both sides will resume hostilities on Monday for a place in the final. The winner of the tie will square off against Barcelona in the title match next month, with the Blaugrana seeing off Chelsea with a 2-1 aggregate in the other semifinal.
