Brazil's Corinthians to Face England's Arsenal in the Inaugural Women’s Champions Cup Final

On Wednesday, Arsenal Women secured a 6-0 semifinal win over AS FAR at Brentford's Gtech Stadium to reach the inaugural FIFA Women's Champions Cup final.
After VAR confirmed a Zineb Redouani handball, Mariona Caldentey converted the penalty, extending Arsenal's lead early in the match.
Goal-Line technology confirmed Stina Blackstenius' opening header had crossed the line before Russo, who came on in the 61st minute and scored twice within ten minutes, completed Arsenal's six-goal rout.
Both the final and third-place match are set for Sunday at Arsenal's Emirates Stadium, with $2.3 million for the winner and at least $1 million guaranteed to Arsenal Women as runner-up.
Arsenal will face Brazilian club Corinthians in the final after Gabi Zanotti's 83rd-minute winner gave Corinthians a 1-0 victory over NWSL club Gotham FC in the six-team Champions Cup.
