The 2019 Women’s International Champions Cup tournament has come to an end. Lyon and North Carolina Courage battled it out for the pre-season trophy, with the French giants emerging triumphant.
Only one goal separated the two sides, with Dzsenifer Marozsán scoring the only goal of the game. And what a strike it was, with the 27-year-old connecting with a pass from Lucy Bronze with a one-time finish.
Her outside-the-penalty-box attempt curled pass the opposition goalkeeper in what was an undeniable beauty of a goal. Watch it in the video below.
