She was also involved in Barcelona’s second goal as Mariona converted a penalty on 52nd minute after the Nigerian had been fouled in the box.

Manchester City should’ve halved the deficit when they were awarded a penalty on 56th minute but Sandra Paños in Barcelona’s goal saved Kelly‘s effort from 12 yards out to keep the score at 2-0.

The win was wrapped up with just four minutes left to play when Jenni Hermoso pounced on a rebound after Alexia‘s shot had come back off the post to make the final score 3-0.

Oshoala’s goal went into the history books as Barcelona’s 100th in the UEFA Women’s Champions League.

This win means Barcelona now have a foot in the Semi Final of the competition with the second leg coming up in England next Wednesday.
