Super Falcons forward Gift Monday expressed her delight after helping Tenerife clinch the Teide Trophy over the weekend.
The team secured the trophy for the second consecutive year by defeating Real Madrid in a tense pre-season final.
Gift Monday played a key role in the match, which ended 1-1 after regulation time.
In the second half, the former FC Robo player forced a crucial save from Real Madrid’s goalkeeper, Lucy Chavas.
The match was ultimately decided by a penalty shootout, where Monday successfully converted her spot-kick to seak Tenerife’s 7-6 victory.
“Winning the TROFEO TEIDE 🏆 with @UDCATenerife against Real Madrid was an absolute dream. Every moment on that pitch was worth it—this victory is for the fans and the team. Grateful for the progress and ready for what’s next,” Gift Monday wrote on her X account.
Tenerife’s next pre-season fixture is scheduled for August 28, when Eder Maestre’s squad will travel to the Peninsula for a training camp.
During the camp, they are set to face Madrid CFF and Valencia CF.
