STARS ABROAD Kenyan forward helpless as Celtic inflict heavy defeat on St Mirren
Ayunga, who has scored two goals so far this season, came on in the 65th minute but could not get going as the side, who were reduced to 10 men, were thrashed by the Scottish giants.
Her football journey took a significant turn in November 2022, when she joined the FKFWPL outfit mid-season. Remarkably, she emerged as the top scorer, an impressive feat for a mid-season entrant.
Besides her traditional role as a striker in position 9, Madalina is adept at playing on both attacking wings. This adaptability is partly due to her ambidextrous abilities, though she primarily uses her right foot.
Last season, her striking prowess was evident as she finished at the top of the striker's tally with 18 goals.
