Unstoppable Oshoala sinks former club Arsenal with goal in Barcelona win

The Super Falcons captain scored a second-half goal as the Blaugranes strolled past Jonas Eidevall’s Gunners

Asisat Oshoala registered her name on the scorer’s sheet as Barcelona silenced her former club Arsenal 4-1 in a Uefa Women’s Champions League encounter on Tuesday night.

Lifted by her effort in the Spanish side’s 9-1 decimation of Deportivo Alaves, the Nigeria international faced the Gunners with a view of extending her impressive goalscoring form.

The Blaugranes got their title defence off to a bright start but the trio of Graham Hansen, Oshoala and Martha Torrejon failed to convert the early chances that came their way.
