Lizbeth Jacqueline Ovalle Muñoz (born 19 October 1999), also known as Jacqueline Ovalle,[1] is a Mexican professional footballer who plays as a left winger for Liga MX Femenil club Tigres UANL and the Mexico national team.

Club career

Tigres UANL (2021–present)

Ovalle started her professional career with Tigres UANL at age 17, signing with the Monterrey based club just ahead of the start of the initial Liga MX Femenil tournament in July of 2017.[2] She quickly became a prominent player for Tigres, scoring six goals and playing more than 800 minutes during her debut tournament.

Ovalle would win her first trophy with Tigres during the Clausura 2018, playing an important role for the team throughout the tournament, but specially during the playoffs in which she scored two goals, including one in the second-leg of the final against city rivals Monterrey.[3]

Since her debut with Tigres in 2017, Ovalle has become a fundamental part of the team, achieving more than 200 league appearances and scoring more than 100 goals, and helping Tigres win a significant number of trophies.[4][5]

International career

Ovalle represented Mexico at the 2016 CONCACAF Women's U-17 Championship, 2016 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup,[6] the 2018 CONCACAF Women's U-20 Championship and the 2018 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup.[7] She made her senior international debut on 1 September 2018.[8]

Ovalle was selected to represent Mexico at the 2023 Pan American Games held in Santiago, Chile, where the Mexican squad went undefeated to win the gold medal for the first time in their history at the Pan American Games, defeating Chile 1–0.[9][10]

In the group stage of the 2024 CONCACAF W Gold Cup, Ovalle opened scoring for Mexico in a 2–0 win against the United States, helping Mexico defeat the U.S. for the second time in team history.[11]
