**Madrid, Spain** – Real Madrid’s women’s team will face fierce rivals FC Barcelona in the semifinals of the Copa de la Reina 2024/2025. The two-legged tie kicks off at the Alfredo Di Stéfano stadium. While Real Madrid are brimming with excitement for the highly anticipated “El Clásico,” they will be without several key players. In addition to the already injured Melanie Leupolz, Teresa Abelleira, and Rocío Gálvez, young Colombian star Linda Caicedo is also unavailable for the first leg. Caicedo recently played extensive minutes for her national team and in a domestic match against Athletic Club.
Midfielder Filippa Angeldahl expressed the team’s enthusiasm, stating, “Everyone loves to play the big games, and to play at home with our fans is amazing. Everyone can’t wait.” She added, “We’re a really good team, and we want to work every day and train hard. We should trust ourselves and believe in our qualities.”
The first leg of the semifinal will be broadcast on Teledeporte (a VPN may be required for international viewers).
