Super Falcons forward Toni Payne helped Sevilla to a shocking lead in the 40th minute, ten minutes after Oshoala had gotten booked.

Expectedly, Barcelona were eager for an equaliser immediately after action resumed in the second half.

And in the 58th minute, their wish came through as Sevilla’s Claudia Pina inadvertently turned the ball into her own net to make it 1-1

Two minutes after drawing level, Oshoala put her team in front after benefitting from an assist from Caldentey.

The Super Falcons star’s Oshoala goal followed key introductions to Barcelona including captain Alexia Putellas and Aitana Bonmati.

Jennifer Hermoso completed the rout and extended Barcelona’s winning run to 28 in as many games.

It was Oshoala’s 20th goal of the season in 18 league games.

Meanwhile, the next stop for Oshoala and her Barcelona Femeni team is an away tie against Rayo Vallecano while Payne’s Sevilla welcome Sporting Huelva.
