UEFA Women's Champions League titles? All-time list of winners, most successful teams and players

On May 25th, 2024, at Estadio San Mames in Spain, Barcelona secured their place in history by winning the UEFA Women's Champions League final. This marks a thrilling culmination of their dominant season, achieving an unprecedented quadruple of titles. Their 2-0 victory over Lyon, fueled by goals from Aitana Bonmati and Alexia Putellas, solidified their position as a force to be reckoned with in European women's football.

This final was a rematch of the 2022 championship, where Lyon emerged victorious. However, Barcelona has shown remarkable resilience, bouncing back in 2023 to defeat Wolfsburg and reclaim the trophy. The 2024 final also set a new record, drawing a crowd of over 50,000 enthusiastic spectators, showcasing the growing interest in the women's game.

Lyon: The Undisputed Queens, But Challenged by a Rising Power

While Barcelona celebrates its recent success, the question of the competition's all-time leader remains. Lyon holds the undeniable crown, having secured the Champions League trophy a staggering eight times. This dominance extends back to the tournament's earlier iteration, the UEFA Women's Cup, which ran from 2001/02 to 2009/10. Their success highlights their consistent strength and strategic prowess over nearly two decades.

However, Barcelona's recent triumphs and growing popularity indicate a potential shift in the power dynamic. Their relentless pursuit of victories and passionate fanbase suggest they might challenge Lyon's longstanding reign in the years to come.
