Kundananji is the most expensive women's footballer ever after leaving Madrid CFF for the USA's Bay FC for a women's football world record transfer fee of $820 000 USD (R14.7 million).
When interviewed on ESPN FC's Futbol W show about her sensational piece of skill against Houston, the goalscoring machine revealed that she's been watching some SA Kasi football games to get inspired.
"I usually watch, I used to watch some videos from South Africa, ghetto games where they play in a field where there's no grass and everything. And they just doing different types of styles, so I copied this and I said I will surely do it one day.
"Before the game, I told my teammates that I will do a style today that I've been wanting to do when we're leading, so that's how I ended up doing that," shared the Zambian superstar.
