Fifteen-year-old Moroccan forward Mayssa Baha has achieved a historic milestone by becoming the youngest player to start and score for FC Barcelona's senior women's team. Her debut start against Logrono on September 26 saw her surpass the previous record held by Lamine Yamal, making her the youngest goalscorer across both the men's and women's senior squads. Additionally, Baha now holds the record for the youngest player to find the net in Spain's Liga F. Having previously appeared as a substitute for the dominant Catalan side, she recently featured alongside Ballon d'Or winner Aitana Bonmarti during a commanding victory over Real Madrid. Despite her rapid rise within the club, which has secured seven consecutive domestic titles, Baha remains ineligible for Uefa Champions League competition until she reaches the required age threshold.
