Arsenal Women s Football Forward: I knew before the game that it would be a hard battle against Barcelona, ​​and I might not even touch the ball

On May 25th, Arsenal women's football team beat Barcelona women's football team 1-0 to win the championship. After the game, Arsenal women's football forward Russo accepted the interview with tears in his eyes.

Russo: "We have put in so much effort and it's so great now that it's just incredible.

"We have had a lot of hard times and the other side is a top team. Before the game, we knew we would face hard battles and would even have moments when we couldn't touch the ball. We must accept this and be willing to give up possession because we believe that the moment that belongs to us will eventually come.

"When our key players came on as a substitute, Steina, Beth, Lena, Lotte... all, the whole team was full of desire for victory. My gratitude was hard to describe."

Speaking of defeating Barcelona: "It felt like a dream. We did what we firmly believe in. From the moment the Champions League journey began, I believed that we had such ability. We knew we were excellent enough, and now we just turned our belief into reality."

Speaking of fans: "They are amazing. They always accompany us in every game, whether at home or away, whether storm or cold. We will celebrate with them on Monday at the Emirates Stadium."
