Wearing my Nepali jersey, every second in the ground I had played as it was my last game. There is any hardly any greater pride than representing Nepal. We are playing final in WAFF Women’s Championship but as a player I have to respect both professional career and a contract. My club has always created a comfortable atmosphere for me, I want to thank club for letting me more time to play as a national player for my country than FIFA had allowed.
I believe our team will continue to maintain the momentum in the final and take the trophy home. We have given a high performances as a team and went to the final. Even though the opposite team is tough, I believe being united once again playing can give us a win. Even though I will not be there in the ground as a player but I will be supporting my country from outside. And the way I used to cherish the goal of my team in the ground, I am eager to share the same goal spirit from the team. Good Luck Team! we can, we will.”
