Arsenal managed to withstand Barcelona's dominance to claim an impressive 1-1 draw against the European champions.

The Gunners were hoping for a repeat upset of the 2025 Champions League final, and while Frida Maanum's opener gave the underdogs something to cling onto, they were unable to keep out a relentless Barca for 90 minutes.

After a start that saw Misa Rodriguez called into action on several occasions early, the Gunners stole the lead as Maanum tucked home a rebound from Caitlin Foord's thwarted effort.

It was a rare moment of escaping the Barca barrage led by Caroline Graham Hansen, who hit the post with the hosts 18th and final attempt of the first half alone.

The Gunners needed a miracle to withstand another 45 minutes without conceding, and such luck didn't come their way. Hansen finally punished the visitors for leaving her in too much space as she bent a beautiful curling effort beyond the reach of Rodriguez.

While it seemed as though the equaliser would open the floodgates, Barca appeared to run out of gas shortly after as Alessia Russo missed the best chance for a winner at the Spotify Camp Nou.

The result means that Arsenal climb back up into the top four places needed to progress straight into the Champions League, while also remaining just two points behind leaders Lyon, who they face off against next week.
