Arsenal's Super Falcons-eligible midfielder Omotara Junaid, is making waves at the 2024 European Under-17 Championship.
With impressive performances in her first two starts, Junaid has helped England qualify for the semifinals with a game to spare and scored one goal at the tournament so far.
In England's opening game against Norway, Junaid played a crucial role in their 3-0 win, demonstrating her imposing presence in the middle of the park with beautiful, well timed runs.
Her ability to tirelessly press the space just behind the striker was impressive, and she could have scored herself with a blocked effort from the corner that missed the target.
However, Junaid's moment of glory came in England's second game against Sweden.
With the score level at 1-1, Junaid unleashed a stunning long-range strike that flew into the bottom corner, giving England a 2-1 lead.
The goal was a testament to her technical ability and power, and it proved to be a turning point in the match which England went on to win 5-1.
Junaid's performances have been a significant factor in England's success.
Her talent, work rate, and dedication look poised to make her one of the standout players in the tournament, and she will be looking to continue her fine form as England face France in their final group game.
With a semifinal spot already secured, Junaid and her England teammates will be aiming to top Group A and set themselves up for a strong run in the knockout stages.
As one of the most impressive players in the tournament so far, Junaid will be looking to make a lasting impact and help England bring home the title.
