She declared her mission ahead of the competition will start on Saturday.
“For me personally, I want to score goals, it’s what I love to do.
“It’s been a while I’ve played with the national team because there’s so many things going on in my personal life. But wherever I’m here, on the pitch, and help my teammates gain the three points in each game we play.
“My expectation of the team is as always: give 100 percent on the pitch, try to win every game we play, and also treat every game as equal and as important.”
