CD Tacon has stepped up to the Spanish supremacy and also been acquired by Real Madrid, although the name will not be changed until next season when Real's license comes into effect.

The league premiere became special in many ways not least with it being played against Barcelona itself. But it was class difference, something that Asllani knew about beforehand.

- Obviously, meeting Barcelona is really special. But we do not have the odds on our side because they have had a team and have invested big ix number of years. But we take one match at a time and will build the team as best we can, she told SVT Sport before the match yesterday.

The Swedish duo behind Tacon's only goal

The League Two and Champions League finalist, Barcelona went from 4-0 already in the first half and the Swedish attacking duo had difficulty creating anything for the newcomer.

However, they managed to get it right on one occasion in the second half, when Asllani passed Jakobsson who was in front of a post where Jessica Martinez added the boiler and reduced to 1-4.

The match ended 9-1 where Spanish Jenifer Hermoso finished with a true hattrick at the end of the second half.
