Arsenal's Jonas Eidevall Outlines Full-Throttle Strategy For Champions League Opener Against Bayern Munich:
Jonas Eidevall is determined for Arsenal to make a strong start in the Champions League against Bayern Munich. Arsenal recently secured their place in the group stage after overcoming Hacken with a 4-1 aggregate win, despite losing the first leg. After missing out last year, they return to a group featuring Juventus and Valerenga. Previously, Arsenal defeated Bayern to reach the semi-finals.
Eidevall is excited about the upcoming challenge against Bayern on Wednesday. He plans to push his team as hard in the Champions League as he does in the Women’s Super League. "For me, the Champions League is very special," Eidevall stated when discussing his priorities. Competing in four tournaments, he emphasised that both the league and European competition hold significant importance for him and his squad.

About UEFA Women's Champions League:
History
The UEFA Women's Champions League, previously called the UEFA Women's Cup (2001–2009), is a European women's association football competition. It involves the top club teams from countries affiliated with the European governing body UEFA.
The competition was first played in 2001–02 under the name UEFA Women's Cup, and renamed the Champions League for the 2009–10 edition. The most significant changes in 2009 were the inclusion of runners-up from the top eight ranked nations, a one-off final as opposed to the two-legged finals in previous years, and – until 2018 – playing the final in the same city as the men's UEFA Champions League final. In the 2021–22 season, the competition proper included a group stage for the first time in the Women's Champions League era.
Lyon is the most successful club in the competition's history, winning the title eight times, including five consecutive titles from 2016 to 2020. Barcelona are the current champions, having beaten Lyon in the 2024 final.
The idea of creating two new women's European Cups is regularly raised to offer more matches.
