The Barça women's team has left the international window with a record of 11 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, after the participation of 14 players in matches that, for the most part, reinforced the qualification for the 2027 World Cup in Brazil and the 2028 Olympic Games. Among those who stood out the most are Clara Serrajordi, Patri Guijarro, Ewa Pajor and Esmee Brugts, whose performances in goals, assists and leadership in the field were decisive for their selections.
In the World Cup qualifying phase, the Spanish team faced the United States and ended with a 0-2 victory and a 2-2 draw. Serrajordi and Guijarro, both midfielders, were the stars of both matches, contributing a goal and an assist each. Guijarro completed the 90 minutes in the second game, while defender Irene Paredes only played in one of the two games. The Basque, under the supervision of Sonia Bermúdez, was measured and played 77 minutes of the 180 total. In the Belgian competition, Ewa Pajor suffered an initial 1‑0 defeat and a missed penalty, but scored a double in the 116th minute that forced a penalty shootout; Despite missing her shot, the Pole secured qualification for the next round against Ireland.
In the Euro Cup qualifiers, the Dutch Esmee Brugts showed herself as the star of the team, scoring two goals and providing an assist in 107 minutes. His versatility helped the Netherlands win 0‑8 against Hungary and 0‑3 against the same nation, securing a place in the World Cup finals. Brugts will play the next match against Slovenia. In the case of the Norwegian team, the federation announced that Caroline Graham Hansen would not participate in the first match against Romania due to discomfort in her right leg; Although it was also ruled out for the second leg in Oslo, Norway achieved a resounding victory of 0‑2 and 6‑0, ensuring its passage to the final phase and the next match against Wales.
Among the players who did not get minutes were Cata Coll, Clàudia Pina and Norwegian forward Caroline Graham Hansen, who withdrew due to minor discomfort. The Spanish goalkeeper and forward missed the two friendlies against the United States, and the Balearic player did not travel to camp. At the subsidiary level, the U-19 team won both friendlies against Sweden (3-1 and 5-1) and the player Kautar Azraf did not participate in Morocco's qualifier for the 2028 Olympics due to the withdrawal of Congo, although she will play in the quarterfinals against Nigeria.
With the closing of the international window, Pere Romeu's players, who have already trained at the Ciutat Esportiva, will return to domestic competition. The next Barça women's match will be against Real Sociedad, away on Sunday, October 18 at 12:00 p.m., which will be broadcast on DAZN.
