Players involved: Millie Bright and Fran Kirby (Chelsea FC) Fridolina Rolfö and Ona Battle (FC Barcelona)

Set in a casual home-like setting, two teammates talked tastes in games, as well as their current UWCL season.

They got involved in playful challenges such as building their perfect recovery day and talked about how it feels to be playing as teammates on the biggest European stage in club football.

The aim is to humanise UWCL players, revealing multifaceted personalities and positioning PlayStation as a brand elevating multifaceted female football icons.
