Lyon’s emphatic 9-0 victory over Slavia Prague on Tuesday saw Ada Hegerberg further solidify her position as the all-time leading scorer in the UEFA Women’s Champions League. The 28-year-old Norwegian, who clinched the Ballon d’Or Feminin in 2018, reached a remarkable milestone by becoming the first player to net 60 goals in UWCL history, accomplishing this feat with a confidently converted penalty kick in the 60th minute of the match.
