Having netted her a late equalizer for FC Köln to seal a 1-1 draw against TSG 1899 Hoffenheim on Friday night, Amber Barrett has been named on the Frauen Bundesliga team of the week.

Barrett formerly played for Peamount United in Dublin and is a current Republic of Ireland international, most recently scoring the 10th goal in their 10-0 win over Georgia at Tallaght Stadium in November.
