Full Time Europe: A show about women's football

Sophie Penney is with Charlotte Harpur and Laia Cervello Herrero after Barcelona won the Champions League, beating eight-time winners Lyon for the first time to secure an unprecedented quadruple. 

What was it like seeing Alexia Putellas’ goal in person? What were the celebrations like in Spain? How did the Lyon players react? And does this mark the changing of the guard in European women’s football? 

Plus, as we look ahead to the Olympics, we talk about the hijab ban for French athletes with Yashmin Harun, chair and founder of England’s largest Muslim women’s sports charity, Muslimah Sports Association.

And Meg Linehan tells us about her new relaunched show, Full Time with Meg Linehan.
