Blomqvist hits a hat-trick as Wolfsburg demolish Galatasaray

Scorers: Wedemeyer 24′, Blomqvist 63′ 77′, 90+6′, Endemann 90+7

Wolfsburg registered a comprehensive 4-0 win away at Galatasaray.

It was the German side who took the lead when a looping corner was attacked at the far post by Joelle Wedemeyer, the defender scoring her first ever UWCL goal after 38 appearances.

Into the second half and Rebecka Blomqvist was on hand to tap in from a long-range strike that had crashed onto the underside of the bar and bounced down.

The Sweden international struck again just 14 minutes later, this time curling an effort in left-footed when she found herself in space inside the box.

Blomqvist’s hat-trick was complete as she added her third six minutes into stoppage time.

If that wasn’t enough, Vivien Endemann struck for Wolfsburg’s fifth in the 97th minute before the final whistle blew.

The two sides meet again in Germany for the return fixture next week.


Weir steals the show as Real Madrid hammer FC Twente

Scorers: Bruun 3′, Méndez 16′ 63′, Feller 50′, Weir 55′, Hernández 65′, Camacho 90+2′

Real Madrid showed their dominance with a 7-0 win over FC Twente.

The home side raced to an early lead when Caroline Weir curled an angled ball right into the path of Signe Bruun, who supplied the simple finish.

One very quickly became two as a Melanie Leupolz corner was headed home by defender María Méndez.

Twente regrouped after the second goal and managed the attacking threat much more effectively.

But five minutes into the second half and Real Madrid had their third. Weir delivered an inch-perfect cross for Naomie Feller to head past Twente goalkeeper Olivia Clark.

When Filippa Angeldal was brought down just outside the box by Twente captain Danique van Ginkel, the home side were awarded a free-kick in a central position. Up stepped Weir and bent in a stunning effort that smashed into the top corner.

The fifth went in just after the hour mark when Oihane Hernández received a defence splitting pass to leave her to fire home when one-on-one with Clark.

Madrid made it six when Hernández headed home to secure her brace, becoming the first defender to do so in the UWCL this season.

19-year-old Carla Camacho added Madrid’s seventh in what was a night to forget for FC Twente.

That win means Alberto Toril’s side have taken six points from their opening three UWCL group stage games.
