Wolfsburg forward Ewa Pajor finished as the UEFA Women's Champions League top scorer with nine goals, capping her haul with the opener in her team's 3-2 final loss to Barcelona.
Pajor finished four clear of her closest rivals: Barça duo Asisat Oshoala and Aitana Bonmatí, Arsenal pair Stina Blackstenius and Frida Maanum, Cloé Lacasse of Benfica and Chelsea's Sam Kerr. Of that group, Blackstenius, Maanum, Lacasse and Kerr were not involved in the final.
Bonmatí reached eight assists when she set up Patri Guijarro for Barcelona's equaliser in the showpiece, putting her three ahead of team-mates Geyse and Mariona Caldentey, plus Chelsea's Guro Reiten. Bonmatí's total of 13 goal contributions (goals and assists combined) was also the competition's leading tally.
