Nigeria striker Ajibade's assist key in Avaldsnes win over Roa

Rasheedat Ajibade played an outstanding role in Avaldsnes’s 1-0 victory over Roa in their Norwegian Toppserien game on Saturday.

Before this, the hosts were smarting from back-to-back defeats to Klepp and Valerenga and they desperately aimed to head into the international break on a high.

And despite a 3-1 loss to Klepp recently, the Super Falcons young sensation grabbed a consolation goal for her Norwegian outfit.

At the Avaldsnes Idrettssenter, the visitors managed to force Lena Tyriberget's side to a goalless draw at half time.

However, Ajibade brilliantly set up Ylinn Tennebo to score the winner in the 60th minute and ensured Avaldsnes returned to winning ways.
