La Liga F begins without Alexia Putellas

Putellas, the first Spanish woman to win the Ballon d'Or, left Barcelona in May after winning all four titles. The London City club, owned by Korean businesswoman Michele Kang, doesn't compete in European competitions and plays in a stadium with 5,150 seats. mchezo.co.za

Despite losing Putellas and other Spanish stars like Mapi León and Ona Batlle, Barcelona remains the favorite with Aitana Bonmatí and Patri Guijarro for the championship they've won in the last seven editions.
