Arsenal advanced to the last Champions League at the age of 16, with a 2-1 victory over Girona on Wednesday evening.
Despite a strong start from Gunners, it was Girona that first hit, as Arnauut Danjuma benefited from a ball from Juanpe to finish Neto in the 28th minute.
Arsenal responded quickly, equivalent to the Georggneo penalty kick after Thomas Barti was dropped in the box.
Visitors dominated the second half, and they dominate possession and create the largest part of the opportunities.
Ethan Nawanry, who is already the second largest English top scorer in the history of the Champions League, produced the moment of magic in the 42nd minute, when she cut great efforts in the distant corner.

They could have a few minutes to go after handball Gironers gave Gunners another penalty kick.
Rahim Sterling rose, but he witnessed his efforts, reflecting his difficult time with North London club this season.
Speaking after the match, ARTETA said: “Really good at the moment. Things are going well.
“We won the last four matches in the Champions League, but winning this competition is very difficult, but the team was very fixed, regardless of all the issues they had to face.
“We hope that there will be more belief in the dressing room that we are a good team and we can face anyone and we still do and win games.”
Before Arsenal's victory over Girona, reports erupted that the club had witnessed a 60 million pounds offer for Watkens.
It comes in the aftermath of ARTETA, which admits next to him to a new striker, but they refused to comment on the matter.
He added: “I cannot talk about any of it. My confidence is that we have a great club with people who always work to try to improve. Let's see what is happening.”
