| Oshoala scored for Arsenal Ladies on her league debut |
Nigeria international Asisat Oshoala bagged a goal on her debut for Arsenal Ladies as they beat Reading 3-1 in a league opening game on Wednesday and promised there are more goals to come.
The 21-year-old Nigeria forward moved from Women’s Super League 1 rivals Liverpool in the close season.
Oshoala, who netted her team's second goal, was denied a brace having earlier struck the goal post with her effort.
"You haven't seen nothing yet." Oshoala said.
"I had fun tonight (Wednesday). It was a very good start for me as an individual, getting to know my teammates, getting to know a new role.
“I think it was a very good thing for me to grow into the game gradually.
“I promise to give my best to the team. I want Arsenal to win a trophy, win every competition, win every game we play in this season.
“I just have to give it my best in the training sessions and in every game give 100 per cent, this is a very competitive team.
“You have to give your best every time, because we have a lot of good players.
“Three points in the first game of the season is very important for us and very difficult as well, because it’s a home game against a new team and you don’t know the way they are going to play.
“It was a very good win for us.”
Newly-promoted Reading saw their resistance broken on 33 minutes when Janssen drove at the Reading back four and planted a low shot beyond Grace Moloney from the edge of the area.
Seconds after the interval, Oshoala latched on to Carter’s pass and rounded Moloney before rolling the ball into an empty net for number two.
