She netted two goals, as well as providing two assists.

“The glory goes to God for the success, it will spur me for greater things in my career.”
“My appreciation goes to the organisers of the Award, Chairman of Confluence Queens, the management of Delta Queens, my coaches, team mates and football fans,” she added.
