València 0-3 FC Barcelona: Win to end the season unbeaten

The blaugranes earn their 29th league win with goals by Vicky López, Patri Guijarro and Graham Hansen

Almost a perfect Liga F season has ended with a 0-3 victory for FC Barcelona. Goals by Vicky López, Patri Guijarro and Graham Hansen - confirming her to be Liga F top scorer - saw the blaugranes win in Valencia, completing a record of 29 wins and just one draw. The home side started well, but the visitors' second half performance assured the three points.

 

Valencia chances

Difficult start for the last game of the season for FC Barcelona, Valencia hitting the post early on, as neither returning starter Mapi León nor keeper Gemma could do anything, although the latter later denied a Maca effort. The visitors soon turned the tide, though, with shots starting to rain in on the home side's goal.

Blaugranes in control

Possession meant control for Jonatan Giráldez' side - his last in charge of the team - but still the goals wouldn't come. The home side were still creating opportunities, though, Bronze preventing 1-0 on the goal line, but the score remained 0-0 at half time.

The goals come and Liga F top scorer confirmed

Graham Hansen's vision and Vicky López' movement combined to break the deadlock after the restart. The Norwegian was in full creative flow, with another of her passes leaded to Claudia Pina hitted the post. Barça had clearly improved and only Enith came between them extending their advantage. 

Keep trying and the rewards will come, which is exactly what Patri Guijarro did, ultimately scoring to make it 0-2. Meanwhile, Engen was dominating at the other end of the pitch to quell any Valencia attacks. Then with the game and season almost over, Graham Hansen grabbed the third to become outright top scorer in the Liga F.

That made it 29 wins and one draw for this FC Barcelona side coached by Jonatán Giráldez. Unbeaten with a massive total of 88 points - an almost perfect season.
