London City Lionesses are the visitors to Brisbane Road on Sunday (12noon) for our final outing in front of Lilywhite fanbase - and the midfielder has relished the support she and her team-mates have received throughout the season.
It can be said that the Denmark international has been at the heart of getting supporters off their seats and creating a fantastic atmosphere – both home and away - with her silky skills to beat defenders or her sublime finishes from distance and inside the box.
Growing up in Denmark, a young Olivia would watch clips of her favourite footballers entertaining the crowd with their style of play and since then, the 24-year-old wanted to replicate that when the next generation watched her on the football pitch.
“It's massive, especially for the whole squad,” she said, speaking exclusively in this weekend’s matchday programme. “But, for a player like me, it's so nice when you do something extraordinary that you can hear the fans clapping and hear them cheer you on.
“That's one of the reasons why I play football. I want to entertain and I want people to be excited, both at home and away games.”
With her full maiden campaign in England coming to a close, having joined us midway through the 2024/25 campaign, it has been a memorable season for the playmaker, registering 12 goal contributions in 26 appearances this term.
“It's been a very good year for me as well,” Oli added. “As a footballer, especially as an attacking player, you would always like to score more goals and more assists but, overall, I have been pleased.
“Martin [Ho] coming in has helped me a lot personally and the players around me have just made it a lot easier for me to go out there and perform because I felt the trust this year.”
