In Spain, Asisat Oshoala scored 3 goals in Barcelona’s two previous games (9-1 win over Real Sociedad & 3-0 win over Athletic Bilbao) which keeps her as the top goalscorer in La Liga with 19 league goals while in Belgium, Paul Onuachu scored his 14th league goal of the season as Genk cruised to a 2-0 win over Standard Liege on Sunday although they still find themselves in 8th place.
