Nigerian striker Emuidzhi Oghiabekhva has made history after becoming the first African to win the golden boot in the Uefa Women’s Champions League following her incredible play for Belarusian club Minsk UWCL

The 30-year-old netted 10 goals in seven Champions League outings for Minsk in the 2019/20 season to share the golden boot.

She will have to share the prize, however, with Arsenal's Vivianne Miedema and Breidablik's Berglind Bjorg Borvaldsdottir notching the same tally during the recently concluded European competition, which was won by Lyon on August 30. Her latest feat summed up her remarkable year in 2019 as she netted 29 goals in 17 league outings for Minsk, totalling 44 goals in all competitions, including five in the Belarusian Women's Cup.
