Nigeria's Ucheibe and Ghana's Abambila help Assi win Norrbotten Cup in Sweden

Christy Ucheibe and Ernestina Abambila delivered impressive performances to help Assi clinch the Norrbetten Cup title after a 2-0 victory over Infjarden in the final on Tuesday.

Nigeria's Ucheibe and Ghana's Abambila joined Sweden's Elitettan outfit in April and May 2019 respectively and made an instant impact in their side's campaign in the second division.

Before the final, the African duo starred as their Risogrund based side defeated Notvikens 4-0 in the semi-final before ending the tournament on a high with a title triumph.

At LF Arena, Assi dictated the proceedings from the start and they won a penalty which Rebekah O'Brien wasted no time converting from the spot in the 12th minute.
