by Ayrton Galea - 23rd November 2015

Birkirkara FC Women's Team towering midfielder Gabriella Zahra has been rewarded for her outstanding performances during the months of September and October, as she was awarded the BOV Women's Best Player award for the two months.

Leading the team's midfield by and generating priceless work in both the attacking and defensive department, the twenty-four year old National Team midfielder has continued to confirm her potential of being one of the finest midfielders on our island.

The Stripes won two out of the three matches played during September and October as they defeated Pembroke and Raiders while losing to Hibernians, and Zahra was a key-player. She played a main role in the 2-1 victory against Raiders played on the 27 October by providing the assist to the winning goal.

Gabriella told us, "This award means a lot to me especially after coming from a season where I wasn't happy with my performances and was working a lot to get over the injury I had. I think that I couldn't start the season better personally, and it really gives me a boost to continue working with the help of my team-mates."

She added, "Our Coach has a lot of credit in this award. First of all because he helped me a lot to regain my fitness, and secondly because he believed in me when I wasn't believing in myself."

We would like to congratulate Gabriella for winning this award!
