It’s the second trip for New Zealand Captain Meikayla Moore to Papua New Guinea she was here during the pacific games.
She led her team well against an athletic and physical Ghana team on Monday leading well in her position as a defender at the back, organizing a resilient defense against Ghana in their
1-0 victory.
She has had experience with the National team the Football Ferns playing in the Womens World Cup in Canada last year; Moore was started her representative career as a member of the New Zealand U-17 side at the 2012 Women's World Championships were she played in all three of New Zealand's group games
She and her team mates know about Papua New Guinea well enough to have researched the country and they will be a strong team if they advance to the knockout stages.
