Ada Hegerberg has two new Mesterliga goals on her conscience after Lyon beat Wolfsburg 3-1 on Tuesday evening.
She thus increased her total as the all-time top scorer in the tournament. The new total is up to 69 goals.
– She is the absolute, indisputable GOAT (best of all time) in this tournament, said Shebahn Ahere in the broadcast on Disney+.
At the same time, she admitted that before the match she had discussed with Fara Williams and the Norwegian national team striker “really was the answer” at the top at Lyon.
There, the 30-year-old from Sunndalsøra quickly answered the accused. 1-0 was a fact when she acted quickly after the free kick from Lindsey Heaps was hit on the crossbar.
– That’s what good strikers do. They are aware of what is happening in and around the five meter, commented Williams.
Five minutes later, she stumped the cross from Selma Bacha beyond the reach of Stina Johannes. Hegerberg probably saw the chance for a hat trick, but it was team captain Wendie Renard who made it 3-0 on penalties.
A quarter of an hour before the end, Hegerberg was taken off the pitch. Wolfsburg reduced once, but never got closer than that.
With a 3-1 victory, Lyon sits at the top of the Champions League table with a full pot after three rounds.
