Nigeria’s emerging talent Goodness Osigwe ended her maiden campaign in Sweden on a memorable note after scoring her first-ever goal for Djurgården in their 3–0 victory over Växjö DFF on Sunday, the final day of the 2025 OBOS Damallsvenskan season.
The home side established early control at the Stockholms Stadion, breaking the deadlock in the 12th minute through Urara Watanabe, who finished calmly after a well-worked attacking move.
Djurgården continued to dominate and were rewarded shortly after the restart when Mimmi Wahlström doubled the advantage in the 50th minute, putting the game firmly beyond Växjö’s reach.
