"This is a setback for me, but I'm going to work through this with all my heart and my energy," the 24-year-old, who has won the Women's Champions League four times in a row with Lyon, wrote on Twitter https://twitter.com/AdaStolsmo/status/1222157255103205381.Hegerberg is the highest scorer in Champions League history and has found the net nine times in the competition this season.
