Ayieyam excited by scoring challenge
Jane Ayieyam is looking forward to maintaining her
scoring start at the U-17 FIFA Women's Cup when
Ghana takes on Germany on Tuesday.

The Black Maidens attacker, who scored four goals
at the last World Cup in Azerbaijan two years ago
was on target for Ghana in their 2-0 win over
Korea DPR on Saturday.

Ayieyam opened the scoring in the 16th minute to
become the first player to score in Costa Rica.

And ahead of the crucial second group fixture with
the Germans, which kicks of at 23:00GMT in
Liberia, Ayieyam is proud with the start and hopes
she can help Ghana progress in the competition.

"We've started well and I am happy that I scored
my first first goal," Ayieyam said.

"I want to continue scoring in every match I am
selected to help Ghana win.

"It's tough but I believe it's possible. At the
last World Cup, I scored four goals but I want to
do much better than that here in Costa Rica."

Another Ghana victory in the Group B campaign will
all but qualify Augustine Adotey's side to the
next round of the competition.
