The 2011–12 season marked her Champions League debut with her then club Kopparbergs/Göteborg FC.

Schough was called into the senior national team by coach Pia Sundhage for the 2013 Algarve Cup. She made her debut at the tournament in a 1–1 draw with China. Sundhage also selected Schough for UEFA Women's Euro 2013, which Sweden hosted.^[8]
