The Jamaican’s brace in Stockholm helped the Blues earn the victory we needed to reach the quarter-finals of Europe’s elite competition for the first time since 2021.
In doing so, she also became City’s record scorer in the Champions League, with a goal in either half en route to a 2-1 win.
With over 20,000 fans packed into the Tele2 Arena, the Blues were greeted by a hostile home crowd, but Shaw feels we responded well to that atmosphere.

“It was a very difficult game tonight,” she admitted.
“The atmosphere and the pitch – it was our first time playing on AstroTurf so it took us a while to get going.
“Once we did, we tried to execute what we know we’re good at. Some parts we could’ve tidied up on, but at the end of the day, the most important thing is qualifying and that’s what we’ve done.”
“We have the experience and quality in the team and we’re used to these atmospheres. We grabbed the experience tonight.”
