On May 21, 2025, in the semifinals of the 2024–25 AFC Women's Champions League, McMahon scored a "thunderous right-foot drive into the top corner" from 23 metres during stoppage time against Incheon Red Angels, leading her team to a 1–0 victory.[3] In the final on May 24, she scored the opening goal in a 1–1 draw against Wuhan Jianghan and converted her penalty kick in a 5–4 loss in the penalty shootout.[4]
