Emma Hayes couldn’t look but Mjelde, standing on her own with all other players sent away by referee Martincic, dispatched the equaliser into the top corner and past Christiane Endler.
Highly-rated Olympic Lyon goalkeepers, Christiane Endler, Katarzyna Kiedrzynek of Paris SG, FC Fleury’s Chloe N’Gazi and Kinga Szemik of Stade de Reims are also in contention for the award.
