New Zealand international Indiah-Page Riley has struck goalscoring form in time for the Football Ferns’ two-match series against Thailand in Christchurch.
Before heading to New Zealand for the friendly internationals, Riley scored a well-taken double for her PSV Eindhoven club in the top tier of Dutch women’s football.
She scored the first and third goals for PSV in their 3-3 draw at AZ Alkmaar.
The draw consolidated PSV’s third-place spot in the Eredivisie and gave the New Zealander six goals for the season.
Meanwhile, Riley has given a 15-minute interview for her PSV club’s media team, in which she discusses how she has settled into Dutch football.
