Barcelona were hit with a major injury setback ahead of Today’s UEFA Women’s Champions League quarter-final match against LSK Kvinner FK as their on form striker Asisat Oshoala pulled an hamstring and will be out for at least two-weeks.
Asisat was in action over the weekend where she helped her team seal a hard fought 2-0 victory over league leaders Atletico Madrid in a top of the table clash in the Primera División de la Liga de Fútbol Femenino.
The Nigerian was replaced in the 73rd minute by England’s Toni Duggan, who went on to cap a good outing for the Blaugranes.
Barcelona confirmed the player’s unavailability for the UWCL quarter-final home first-leg against LSK Kvinner.
