    Oshoala Clinches Women’s Champions League Best Goal Award

    Oshoala’s remarkable bicycle kick during Barcelona’s 5-0 victory over Benfica in the group stage secured her the accolade, with Barcelona eventually securing their second consecutive Champions League title that season.

    In the midst of Barcelona leading 4-0, Oshoala received a pass from Jonatan Giráldez and wasted no time in showcasing her skill, sealing the match with a spectacular goal – her sole contribution to the competition.

    Following her outstanding performance, Oshoala made a mid-season transfer to Bay FC in the United States.

    UEFA announced on Monday that Oshoala’s goal had been chosen as the best among several outstanding contenders.

    “The top 10 goals of the 2023/24 UEFA Women’s Champions League campaign have been selected by UEFA’s Technical Observer panel, with Nigerian forward Asisat Oshoala taking the prize for Goal of the Season thanks to her stunning bicycle kick for Barcelona against Benfica on Matchday 1,” UEFA stated on their website.

    “Also for Barça, midfielder Aitana Bonmatí took second spot for her bending effort in the quarter-finals second-leg win against Brann, while Lyon’s Delphine Cascarino came third for her long-range strike in the quarter-finals second-leg victory over Benfica.”

    Oshoala’s achievement marked a significant milestone, as she became the first African player to win three UEFA Women’s Champions League titles with Barcelona Femení.

    Despite her mid-season transfer, the 29-year-old received a winner’s medal for her contribution to Barcelona’s Champions League campaign, having played in two group-stage matches and scoring once before her move.
