“After the team I played for was disbanded, I went back to Brazil to train for 4 months, until I was infected with the new crown virus and stopped training. After I recovered, I started to start my own business.” Chioyunni explained that after her daughter graduated from university last year, she started her career at the beginning of this year.

In addition, he also challenges his personal goals: “At present, I have scored about 180 goals in Hong Kong matches, so I want to try to challenge the milestone of 200 goals.”
