Manchester United is close to signing free agent Fridolina Rolfö, who recently left Barcelona after a successful four-year stint, adding a versatile international player to their women's team as they prepare for the Champions League.
Sweden defeated Australia 2-0 in the Women's World Cup bronze medal match, extending their perfect record in third-place matches to four. Fridolina Rolfo and Kosovare Asllani scored for Sweden, securing the victory. Despite a disappointing finish for the Matildas, who captivated their country during their run to the semifinals for the first time, they expressed pride in their performance and hope to inspire future generations of Australian footballers. European nations will finish first, second, and third in the tournament, with England and Spain set to meet in the final.
Barcelona came back from two goals down to beat VfL Wolfsburg 3-2 and win the UEFA Women's Champions League for the second time in three years. Patri Guijarro scored twice in two minutes at the start of the second half, and Fridolina Rolfo struck the winner in the 70th minute. Wolfsburg had taken a comfortable lead going into half-time with goals from Ewa Pajor and Alexandra Popp. Barca's comeback will fuel arguments that they are now the dominant team in European football.
