<p>The first-ever champion of the FIFA Women's Champions Cup will be determined when Corinthians faces Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium in London this Sunday. Fans can catch all the action on the CBS Sports Golazo Network as the tournament unfolds. Arsenal earned their spot in the competition by overcoming Barcelona in the UEFA Women's Champions League and besting Morocco's ASFAR in the semi-finals. On the other hand, Corinthians secured their entry by winning the CONMEBOL Copa Libertadores Femenina, first defeating Deportivo Cali and then overcoming New York/New Jersey Gotham FC from Concacaf.</p>

<p>The title match pits Arsenal against Corinthians, while Gotham will compete against ASFAR for third place, also scheduled for Sunday. Arsenal appears to be regaining their form, aided by the return of Cho Kelly from a two-month injury absence, which could play a crucial role in their confrontation with the well-organized Corinthians.</p>
<p>"It's hard to even discuss this match because we know how challenging it will be," acknowledged Corinthians midfielder Duda Sampaio. "This will likely be one of the toughest games of my career. We're aware of Arsenal's prominence in Europe and are preparing to deliver another remarkable performance, similar to our semi-final match."</p>
