The 31-year-old registered 46 goals and assists combined in the 2020/21 Primera Division. All that in only 26 appearances. In the course of scoring those she became the highest ever goalscorer for Barca women. On top of that, her eight goals in two games for the Spain national team in 2020-21 made her her country's leading markswoman of all time.
Her efforts inspired Barcelona to a record-breaking season in the Primera Division. They took 99 points from a possible 102 and finished with a +152 goal difference. They also won the Champions League.
