Alert, Benfica! Star player ruled out of the Champions League | OneFootball

Caroline Moller is ruled out for the match against PSG due to injury. On the eve of Benfica taking the field for the final round of the Women's Champions League, against the Parisian team, the absence of the Eagles' player has been confirmed.

Through social media, the page that follows the latest news on Benfica women's football reported that Moller did not recover in time for the match against PSG and, for that reason, will be unavailable for Ivan Baptista's options in the game that closes the team's participation in the European competition.

According to the same page, the Danish footballer suffered a hard tackle in last Sunday's match, December 14, counting for the Portuguese Cup, and was substituted following a tougher foul by a Damaiense player. The Eagles eventually secured passage to the next round with a 2-0 victory.

On the other hand, Benfica is now only playing for pride in the prestigious competition, since they were eliminated from the Champions League after suffering yet another defeat, this time against Barcelona, in the fifth round of the first phase of the competition (3-1).

Caroline Moller was one of the major signings of the summer transfer window, having arrived from Real Madrid. This season, the 26-year-old footballer has already played a total of 14 official matches for the team. In the 809 minutes she spent on the pitch, the number 10 scored three goals and provided one assist.
