Super Falcons forward Omorinsola Babajide has hailed Black Queens midfielder Grace Asantewaa following her performance in the international friendly against England.
The London-born Nigerian watched the Black Queens engage the European champions in a highly-competitive encounter at the St Mary's on Tuesday evening.
England defeated the WAFCON bronze-medalist 2-0, with Lucia Kendall and Alessia Russo on the scoresheet.
Despite the defeat, Asantewaa was one of the standout performers in the game, receiving applause from the AS Roma Women's star.
"Grace Asantewaa is too good," posted Babajide on her social media pages.

Meanwhile, Asantewaa expressed gratitude to Ghanaians for their support and hopes to meet England again in future.
"We live to strike back another time. Thank you Ghana for the support," posted the FC Juarez midfielder.
Asantewaa has been in fine form for the Black Queens, helping the team qualify for the Women's Africa Cup of Nations next year.
She was also Ghana's best player at the 2024 WAFCON in Morocco, making the Team of the Tournament.
