Oshoala 'happy' her family can now watch Women's Champions League on TV

Super Falcons star Asisat Oshoala is relaxed and excited heading into the final of the 2023 UEFA Women’s Champions League this weekend.

Oshoala and her Barcelona Femeni team will have their hands full on Saturday when they take on German giants Wolfsburg in the final.

The battle between these two former Champions League winners looking to regain their lost glories will take place at an already sold-out Philips Stadion in Eindhoven, Netherlands.

The 28-year-old will go into the final as one of the best players to look out for and a potential game-changer for her club, Barcelona.

Oshoala has been one of the top performers this season in the Champions League having scored five goals and assisted three more in just nine appearances.

The Super Falcon has been speaking about the growth of the women’s game and also reflected on the feeling of lifting the title the last time.

Speaking on the win two years ago, the former Arsenal striker described it as ‘amazing’.

"My goodness, when we won the Champions League [in 2021] of course! Winning the Champions League is amazing,’’ she told the Champions League website as reported by Pulse Sports Nigeria.

On the growth of the Women’s Champions League, the forward could not control her excitement as she added she is happy her family can now watch her on TV in Nigeria.

, "You can imagine how it's going to be in five years; it's going to be so, so amazing,” she added.

"You're going to have really amazing sponsorship, you're going to have such big media outlets who want to invest in this competition.

"We have DAZN now, which we didn't have a couple of years ago. And now a lot of people have access to watch the Women's Champions League. Even my family can watch me play now.

"Up until now in Africa, we didn't get to watch the matches, they just followed the live scores. And this is just the beginning – there's so much more to come for women's football."

Oshoala and her Barcelona teammates are already in Eindhoven ahead of the potentially pulsating clash.
