First UWCL goal for Olivia Smith!
Arsenal Women won 3–0 away at OH Leuven in the Women’s Champions League group stage finale, securing a positive end to the group phase, even though they didn't make it to the top four. Olivia Smith opened the scoring in the 18th minute, Beth Mead doubled the lead in the 27th, and Saar Janssen scored an own goal in the 67th minute to complete the win. For Smith it was first UWCL goal ever.
Despite the win, Arsenal finished fifth in the group phase, meaning they progress to the Champions League knockout playoffs instead of securing an automatic quarter-final spot.
