Ghanaian youngster Jennifer Kankam Yeboah came to the party over the weekend for Odisha Football Club as they booked a place in the 2024/25 Asian Women's Champions League.
The forward, who joined the club this summer, was twice on the scoresheet for her side as they recorded an essential win over Etihad Club.
Jennifer Kankam opened the scoring in the game after just 15 minutes played as she capitalised on a miscommunication at the back for Etihad to give her side the lead.

Odisha FC were reduced to 10 players after Grace Hauhnar was shown a red card after the away side had also had a player sent off.
Etihad grabbed the equaliser 11 minutes after the break but the Women's Footballer of the Year at the 2024 Ghana Football Awards was on hand to restore Odisha's lead and give them the victory.
The 2-1 win means the Indian champions make the group stage of the inaugural Asian Women's Champions League.
Jennifer signed for the club following the expiration of her deal with Egyptian side ZED FC where she netted 57 goals in 30 appearances last season.
