And then there were four. One of Barcelona, Arsenal, Bayern Munich or Lyon will be crowned winners of the Women's Champions League next month, after the quartet progressed through an enthralling quarter-final stage over the past week. Bayern will take on Barca later this month while holders Arsenal will face Lyon, with the winners to meet in the final in Oslo, Norway, at the end of May.

VfL Wolfsburg have opened the door to the Champions League semi-finals against OL Lyon – even the injured Alexandra Popp is now hopeful.

Alexandra Popp's special connection to Borussia Dortmund has never been a secret in the football world. Now the sensation is complete: The three-time Champions League winner is joining BVB from VfL Wolfsburg on a free transfer. The 34-year-old has signed a three-year contract in Dortmund, binding her to the club until June 30, 2029.

Defending champions Arsenal will face London rivals Chelsea in the Women's Champions League quarter-finals, if they can defeat OH Leuven in the knockout play-offs. The Gunners beat the Belgian minnows 3-0 in the last round of the league phase and will be heavily favoured to do so again, making an all-English quarter-final incredibly likely.
