However, Ajibade's goal proved unimportant as Pau Quesada's team gained 1-2 victory over the French giants in France.

The visitors went ahead just before the half-hour as Naomie Feller turned Yasmim's centre inside the far post.

It was 2-0 in first-half added time when Alba Redondo pounced on the rebound after Caroline Weir's volley was pushed onto the post by Mary Earps.

PSG were much improved after the break, but although Rasheedat Ajibade's header close to the hour mark set up a grandstand finish, Madrid dug in to win.

Meanwhile, it was her first goal of the season for PSG in the UEFA Women's Champions League.
