UEFA is investigating after Khadija Shaw appeared to be struck by an object during Manchester’s City’s 2-1 Champions League victory at Hammarby on Thursday.
The match in Stockholm, for which there was a crowd of just over 20,000, saw Shaw score both the visitors’ goals.
When she put them ahead with the opener just past the half-hour mark, Shaw celebrated in front of the home supporters and appeared to be hit by something thrown from the stands, before being booked.

A statement from UEFA on Friday said: “Proceedings have been opened against Hammarby IF for throwing of objects (Article 16(2)(b) of the Disciplinary Regulations).
“Manchester City player Khadija Shaw received a yellow card following her goal presentation for unsporting conduct.”
City secured qualification for the quarter-finals as they made it four wins from as many games in Group D.
Skipper Alex Greenwood said of Shaw in a post on X after the game: “Travel to Stockholm score a big goal.
“CELEBRATES her goal. GETS OBJECTS THROWN AT HER. Gets stick from the home fans. Gets a yellow card. Celebrate with your team mates. Qualified for quarter final. What else are you gonna do on a Thursday?”
