Watch: Lauren Wade scores screamer in Women's Champions League

Northern Ireland striker Lauren Wade scored an absolute screamer in the Women's Champions League on Friday.

It may have been a consolation for Glasgow City in their quarter-final tie against Wolfsburg, but it was a cracker.

A long ball from goalkeeper Lee Alexander was headed on, and Wade rushed onto the ball before hammering a first-time shot over the Wolfsburg keeper's head from an acute angle.

It's a goal you could watch time and time again, and it has been earning plenty of praise on social media.

Glasgow fell to a 9-1 defeat to the impressive German side, but Coleraine native Wade will enjoy remembering the game for her moment of magic.

The 26-year-old, who has been capped 23 times for Northern Ireland, is part of a Glasgow City side that has won 13 consecutive Scottish league titles.
