As the Real Madrid maestro approached the BBC Scotland cameras following just another night at the office, her smile was ear-to-ear, if not a little coy at times.
She knew her personal performance was going to be highlighted - again. And that's not really up her alley.
"It feels really nice," the 30-year-old told BBC Scotland. "Obviously it's great to score, but to be honest, getting three points is the most important thing.
"I'm just focusing on helping the team.
"I play a role that's quite attacking and helping scoring goals and creating chances is what I'm here to do."
As true as that might be, few take it quite as literally as Weir.
When something, anything, is needed, eyes are drawn to her.
Something that will, it appears, only increase in the Andreatta era. Not just because she is the Australian's captain but because there is an increased emphasis on set-pieces. That's where Weir shines.
During the four friendlies at the end of last year, the head coach and her squad spoke of the extra attention that was being paid to dead-ball situations, particularly by assistant Marty Judge.
All three first-half goals came from set-piece scenarios - and each time Judge was the first to be acknowledged by Andreatta.
"We focus a lot on set-pieces," Weir explained. "We feel like we have a really strong threat there, both delivery-wise and aerially.
"We genuinely feel every set-piece is a good chance for us. A lot of work is done on them and so, when they come off in the game, we're really happy."
