Six Africans confirm Women's Champions League Round of 16 foes

Nigeria's Asisat Oshoala will lead Barcelona's attacking line when they slug it out with Fortuna Hjorring in a Uefa Women's Champions League Round of 16 tie, following Tuesday's draw.

The draw ceremony was held in Nyon, and saw Oshoala and the Spanish champions drawn against the Danish giants, who are on the stage as one of the previous finalists in the competition.

Following their maiden final appearance in 2019, the Nigeria striker will be anxious to help her Iberdrola outfit reach the second final in three straight outings but must edge past the Danish side.
