Nigerian forward Goodness Osigwe capped her maiden season in Sweden with a moment to remember her first goal for Djurgården, sealing a 3–0 win over Växjö DFF as the 2025 Damallsvenskan campaign drew to a close.
Osigwe, who joined Djurgården from Edo Queens at the beginning of the season, came off the bench in the 70th minute and made an immediate impact. As the match wound down, she showed composure beyond her years by calmly finishing in the 90th minute to wrap up the win.
That goal wasn’t just a statistical footnote it was a statement. It helped her team finish fourth in the league, just seven points shy of a European qualification spot. For Osigwe, the strike adds real momentum as she looks ahead to her second season in Scandinavia.

Goodness Osigwe’s journey to Stockholm and her burgeoning impact at Djurgården is not simply a story of a young talent finding her feet it is one of rising promise, carefully nurtured, and now beginning to flower in the cold Scandinavian air.
When she arrived from Edo Queens, she brought with her a blend of speed, trickery, and ambition qualities that had caught the eye at home, and which the Djurgården technical staff clearly believed could translate to the Damallsvenskan. There was risk a teenage forward, relocating to a new country, adapting to a new style. But there was also vision.
Her goal in the last game of the season coming off the bench, waiting for her moment, then striking with conviction is more than a mere reward for an otherwise quiet campaign. It is emblematic of her character. Too often, young players arrive in Europe with promises but no platform Osigwe, it seems, is being given one.
This is not the end, but a beginning. For her, the next season should not be about proving she belongs she already has but about showing that she can elevate. Djurgården, for their part, have backed her. Now they must support her growth, even as expectations rise.
In a league where experience often trumps talent, Osigwe has made her case: she is not just a project — she is a potential cornerstone.
