In a two-legged victory over the Black Stars, where Kundananji scored the winning goal in the first match, the 23-year-old was stretchered off just after the 60th minute mark of the return fixture. Unable to walk on her own, she left the ground in tears with what ESPN reported as a knee injury.

Kundananji recently broke the women's transfer record with her blockbuster move to Bay FC. The NWSL expansion side forked over $788,000 for the Zambian striker, making her the centerfold of the club.

Kundananji scored 27 goals across the 2022-23 season for Liga F side Madrid CFF, an incredible feat for a young striker.
