Super Falcon's striker Asisat Oshoala grabbed a brace and provided two assists as Barcelona Femeni whitewashed Benfica women's team by 9-0 in the UEFA Women's Champions League.

The Barcelonistes welcomed Christy Ucheibe's Benfica side to the Estadi Johan Cruyff in their opening game of the 2022/2023 Champions League.

Oshoala scored the third goal of the game in the 34th minute after she capitalised on a loose ball to strike home with her superb right foot from 25 yards out.

The 28-year-old reigning African women's footballer of the year would go ahead to grab her second goal in the second half.

Her Nigerian counterpart on the opposing side, Christy Ucheibe came off the bench for the Portuguese side in the second half but couldn't make any real impact.
