Remember Peter Ijeh? Headband-wearing Daughter Scores Brace, Bags 2 Assists For Sweden In 14-0 Win

Published: October 02, 2019

Evelyn Ijeh is proving to be a chip off the old block as she has been scoring goals just like her father did during his playing days with Malmo and Viking FK.

Ijeh, who loves wearing headbands, a style she copied from her famous father, was in brilliant form for Sweden as they demolished Armenia 14-0 in a 2020 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship qualifier staged at Stadium Etno Selo Stanisići - Bijeljina on Wednesday, October 2.

The 2001-born player was involved in four goals in the comprehensive win against the Armenians.

Ijeh doubled Sweden's advantage in the sixth minute and got her brace in the 45th minute, and she was denied an opportunity to score a hat-trick when she was substituted in the 54th minute.

The Göteborg wonderkid set up the goals scored by Lundkvist and Lang in the 11th and 25th minute respectively.

Born and raised in Sweden, Evelyn Ijeh represented the Scandinavian country's U17 national team before earning a promotion to the U19s in 2018.

The promising striker has made five appearances for Göteborg in the Damallsvenskan this season.
