A clip of Alisha Lehmann’s sensational training ground rabona has gone viral on social media, with some fans boldly comparing her to Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Swiss forward took to TikTok on Sunday evening to share a seven second video clip of her scoring an outrageous rabona during one of Aston Villa‘s recent training sessions.
The 24-year-old forward executed the skill after her team-mate played the ball slightly behind her while she was running into the box.
Lehmann, who previously played for West Ham in the Women’s Super League, crossed her right leg behind her left to poke the ball into the top corner of the goal.
Fans were quick to praise Lehmann and one supporter dubbed her the ‘female Ronaldo’ while others joked she was better than Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez in front of goal.

Others took to the social media platform to praise her technical ability, writing: ‘Sensational, brilliantly taken’.
Another football fan wrote: ‘That was actually cold!’, while one supporter added: ‘she’s untouchable’.
Others said Lehmann’s goal proved she was better than the likes of Nunez and struggling Chelsea duo Kai Havertz and Mykhailo Mudryk.
