She opened the scoring for her team with a superb ball header and doubled her score in the last five minutes, placing a world-clbad shot at the corner of the net.
"It's a World Cup, you score a goal, so I think you can cheer and be a little crazy about it," she added.

Although being neglected in the group match on Saturday, Cameroon played a real match and equaled just 154 seconds after Miedema gave the Dutch the advantage.
Gabrielle Onguene timed her run to perfection and capitalized on a neglected game, as Dutch goalkeeper Sari van Veenendaal misjudged the ball's rebound.
However, the gap in the clbad became too complicated in the second half when Dominique Bloodworth, formerly of Arsenal, put the Netherlands back under control before Miedema strengthened his lead.
The victory confirmed the Netherlands' place in the round of 16 of the tournament in France, with Cameroon recording its second defeat in the group stage.
Dutch fans
The Netherlands were almost the second home team of this year's World Cup, with a considerable number of Dutch fans who came to watch their team play.
Thousands of people came down to Le Havre to see their team beat New Zealand in the opening match and support was once again very keen on Saturday.
"Valenciennes is very close to the Netherlands, so we have been at a disadvantage in this respect," said Cameroon coach Alain Djeumfa, citing the atmosphere created by Dutch support.
"We could not play an hour from Holland and that would not affect our team on a psychological level."
Canada is progressing
Canada has also secured a spot in the last 16 games by beating New Zealand 2-0 in its second game of the group.
Despite the good atmosphere at the Stade des Alpes in Grenoble, neither team managed to make a breakthrough in what was still an entertaining first half.
Dominating Canada – ranked fifth best team in the world – had the best of luck.
Christine Sinclair, who needed four more goals to become the best international scorer in the world, was closest after her looping header hit the crossbar.

In the end, however, the pressure took a toll and Jessie Fleming unlocked the stalemate. The 21-year-old finished a radical move after Nichelle Prince was released on the left wing.
Prince herself doubled Canada's lead in the finals, returning to the rebound after Sinclair hit the post with a header again.
Canada, already qualified for the round of 16 of the tournament, will face the Netherlands in their last group match, while New Zealand will face Cameroon.
