The Barça women have continued their relentless march through the 2021/22 season with a 3-0 victory at Eibar on Saturday with goals from Crnogorcevic, Oshoala, and Jenni Hermoso, all in the first half. There were chances aplenty to extend on that lead after the break, but it didn’t happen.
Great first half
Eibar had the first clear chance when Cata Coll saved a well-struck free kick, but it was the Catalans who dominated the play and they eventually made that count in the form of goals.
Ana Crnogorcevic headed in a Lieke Martens cross after 19 minutes, and it was Martens again who served Oshoala’s eleventh goal of the current league campaign. The Dutch international capped a fabulous first half by also playing a key role in the build-up to Jenni Hermoso’s goal just before the break.
Danger but no goals
Barça Femení came close on several occasions to adding to the three goals in the first half. María León sent one strike skimming wide of the post, Claudia Pina’s powerful effort was saved by Noelia and a number of other chances went begging, but the three points were already more than secure.
