Super Falcons star ranks among Portugal's top players after stellar season

Posted : 12 September 2024

Super Falcons midfielder Christy Ucheibe has been recognized as one of the top players in the 2023/24 Portuguese BPI League, securing a place in the prestigious Team of the Season. Her impressive performance throughout the year not only highlighted her individual skills but also her significant impact on her club’s success.


Ucheibe played a vital role in helping Benfica Feminino achieve an extraordinary quadruple. Her contributions were crucial in winning the Campeonato Nacional, Taça de Portugal, Taça da Liga, and Campeonato Nacional II Divisão. 


In addition to her domestic achievements, Ucheibe featured in eleven UEFA Women’s Champions League matches, scoring once and proving to be an essential player in the midfield. 


Her exceptional form extended into the new season, where she was named the best player at the Algarve Women’s Trophy in August. Ucheibe was instrumental in Benfica’s victories at the Algarve Stadium, including their exciting 4-3 triumph over Sevilla. 


After the win, Ucheibe expressed her gratitude, stating, “God is not done with me yet! All glory to God almighty.” She added, “Benfica by soul, see you next week for a new episode of Benfica.”


At 23 years old and originally from Abia, Nigeria, Ucheibe has made 68 appearances for Benfica since her arrival in 2020, scoring four goals. 


Ucheibe’s career trajectory has been impressive since she began with Nasarawa Amazons in 2018. She has also represented Nigeria at U-17 and U-20 levels and has earned 61 caps for the Super Falcons since 2022, with one goal to her name.
