With her back to the goal, Ovalle received a cross from Spanish forward Jenni Hermoso on the edge of the penalty area. In a stunning display of skill and athleticism, she leaped into the air, twisted her body, and flicked the ball over the goalkeeper with her left heel, sending it looping under the crossbar.
The audacious strike left Hermoso—best known for her role in Spain’s 2023 Women’s World Cup victory—on her knees in disbelief. Ovalle, meanwhile, sprinted to the Tigres bench to celebrate with her teammates.
The goal capped off a dominant performance by Tigres, who secured a 2-0 victory over Guadalajara in Mexico’s top-tier women’s soccer league.
