“Always been unstoppable” – FIFA hails Oshoala over special feat

FIFA Female Football Icon, Asisat Oshoala won the Pichichi with Barcelona despite suffering a 2-month injury spell

Oshoala was confirmed the joint top scorer of the Spanish Women’s football league on Sunday as her 20 goals proved enough for the award.

Alongside Geyse Ferreira of Atletico Madrid Femenino, Oshoala shared the top prize for scorers in the team despite playing just 19 of Barcelona’s 30 games.

“20 goals and a perfect club season.

Asisat Oshoala has always been unstoppable!,” FIFA wrote on their official Women’s World Cup page.

Oshoala has had a superb season, winning the league’s top scorer, and achieving a spotless league record. Barcelona scored 159 goals in 30 games as they didn’t drop a single point. They conceded just eleven goals to establish their exceptional dominance.

Barcelona Femeni will face Lyon in the final of the Champions League as they hope to successfully defend the title they won last year.

Should Barcelona emerge champions, Oshoala would win the Champions League for the second time and become the first African to win it twice, one season after becoming the first African to win the award.
