Alisha Lehmann given unusual gift after helping new club secure cup victory

Alisha Lehmann has been given an unusual gift in the wake of Como's 1-0 win over Atletico Madrid on Sunday.

Como beat Atletico courtesy of Nadine Nischler’s 54th minute strike from the edge of the box.

It helped the Italian outfit to a third place finish in The Women’s Cup at the Arena Civica in Milan.

Indeed, new signing Lehmann played 88 minutes of the encounter, before being subbed off for Fortesa Berisha.

And at the end of the game, the Switzerland international received an unusual gift - Lehmann was presented with a special portrait of herself by the organisers.

Lehmann proudly showed it off on her Instagram story, which you can see below.

The 26-year-old joined Como from Juventus earlier this month, and went on to make her debut against her former club in the Women’s Cup semi-finals. Como went on to lose 2-0 to the Turin side.

Upon signing, the former Aston Villa and Everton star told the Guardian: “It’s an independent club, fully focused on women’s football – and that really matters to me.

“From the start, I could see this wasn’t just another team; it’s a project with real purpose and vision. [So] signing with FC Como Women just felt right.”

Lehmann went on to praise the club’s “female-first mentality” and apparent ethos.

She said: “We’re in a moment where women’s football can define itself on its own terms, and independent clubs like Como Women have the opportunity in leading the movement. [It] isn’t just about winning matches.

“It’s about building something that lasts. This is the first time I’ve joined an independent club. That was a big part of my decision. It shows there is a different way of doing things.”

Lehmann could make her competitive debut for Como on October 5 when they take on Lazio in their 2025-26 Serie A Femminile opener.
