'It's my best time to win' - World Cup record holder Nnadozie targets NWPL title with Rivers Angels

The Nigeria international feels it is time for the Jewel of Rivers to end their title drought, and she has set her sights on a league triumph

Chiamaka Nnadozie is hoping Rivers Angels can win the 2019 Nigeria Women's Premier League (NWPL) title, having last clinched the trophy in 2016.

Nnadozie inspired Nigeria to a 2019 Wafu Women's Cup win in Cote d'Ivoire in May, and later emerged as the youngest goalkeeper to keep a clean sheet at the Women's World Cup in France.

She followed up her sterling year with another impressive display in Morocco, where her goalkeeping heroics helped the country win gold at the African Games for the first time in 12 years.
