On the exterior of the redecorated Emirates Stadium, Arsenal’s quadruple-winning women’s team of 2006-07 heave on red ropes, pulling up the former UWCL trophy. A trophy no other English team has won. That achievement is given equal billing opposite the men’s “Invincibles” team who are similarly raising high a gold Premier League trophy.
Inside the stadium, the depleted Gunners battled valiantly but could not pull themselves into their second Champions League final, losing 3-2 against the two-time European champions Wolfsburg, with the winner coming deep into extra time.
