Alisha Lehmann admires lifesize Bobblehead of herself spotted at carnival in Switzerland as Aston Villa star reveals creation 'made me laugh'

The 25-year-old was in action in midweek in Villa's FA Women's League Cup penalty shootout win over Brighton on Wednesday. The day after, the forward took to Instagram to respond to a clip of a Bobblehead Lehmann donned in a Swiss kit lapping up the cheers from the crowd at a carnival - something she found very amusing.

In her Instagram story, she wrote: "Whoever did this, you made me laugh," followed by a squinting face with tongue emoji and a crying with laughter emoji, too.

Also in the story were the words: "Du triffst Alisha Lehmann an der Fasnacht," which means "You meet Alisha Lehmann at carnival."

The sight of the hilarious carnival creation may have cheered Lehmann up after she tasted her first defeat as a manager in the inaugural Ballers League in Cologne this week. The forward heads up Streets FC in the innovative competition, which was co-founded by Lukas Podolski and Mats Hummels.

Due to Aston Villa's early FA Cup exit, there is a break from club action for Lehmann this weekend, with the Villans not playing again in the WSL until February 18 when they travel to Tottenham. Therefore, she can continue to enjoy some downtime.
