Nigeria’s Oshoala: I'd get in trouble for playing football - I didn't get to sleep at home

 The Barcelona star opened up on her route to being a UEFA Women’s Champions League winner and how attitudes in women’s football have changed

Nigeria’s Asisat Oshoala has opened up on her route to the top of the game and how her love for football would often get her into trouble at home.


The Barcelona star became the first African player to win the UEFA Women’s Champions League in May, as the Spanish champions beat Chelsea 4-0 in last season’s final.


While on that journey to the highest point, her parents have certainly changed their previously sceptical ways and the striker has also noticed massive changes in general in how women’s football is viewed - with even bigger changes to come.
