AFC U17 Women's Asian Cup
Kickstarting her tournament with a goal against Thailand, Shinjo also scored in the next game against Australia before grabbing a brace in the semi-final win against China PR.
She also created three chances for her teammates but suffered a heartbreaking 1-0 defeat to DPR Korea in the final.
“I’m very happy to get this award and thankful because it means that people see my performance as good,” said Shinjo.
“But looking at the final, I’m not yet a player that can make the team win and change the situation. Our defenders were able to defend well but the offensive players needed to make more.
“In the future I want to be a player who can score in an important game like today’s final and be able to change situations when we are losing.”
