Barcelona forward Asisat Oshoala has been named in the Spanish Primera Iberdrola Team of the Season for the 2019-20 campaign.
Oshoala has emerged as one of the superstars in the top-flight, putting her strength, power, and physicality on display while scoring goals aplenty for Barcelona, since moving to Spain on January 31, 2019.
The Nigeria international played a huge role in helping the Catalans clinch their first league title in five years without losing a match in 21 games last season.
The FC Robo Queens product scored 20 goals and gave one assist in 19 outings to help Lluis Cortes’ side finish at the top before the league was called off due to the Covid-19 outbreak.
The 3-3-4 formation list, dominated by Barcelona, saw Sandra Panos claim the goal post, while Mapi Leon and Marian Torrejon, along with Deportivo La Corona’s Maria Mendez named in the defence.
In the midfield are Ona Batlle of Levante and Barcelona duo of Patri Guijarro and Alexia Putellas, while Oshoala led the attack with Jenni Hermoso, Graham Hansen and Atletico Madrid’s Lucy Santos.
The Super Falcons star is the only African among the nominations, with the likes of Logrono striker Jade Boho, who managed 12 goals last term, overlooked. (Goal)
