Although the Nigerians forward, couldn’t find the back of the net, she was lively the throughout the game giving the Juventus defence a lot of work to do in plucking up her runs. That in turn opened up spaces which her team mates capitalised on to wreck havoc.

Barcelona Femeni secured a first half 2-0 lead and were comfortable for the remainder of the match. Although Juventus pulled one back midway through the second half, it wasn’t enough to give them the desired result as Barcelona progressed to the next round.
