Rianna scored in every game in January as Spurs won 2-1 at Sheffield United, beat Lewes 3-0 at home and then secured a sensational last-minute win at Millwall Lionesses by the odd goal in five. Rianna was the player who bagged the stoppage-time winner.
Fellow forward Sarah contributed two goals – one against Sheffield United and one against Millwall.
Zoe Ness of Durham Women and Millwall’s Evie Clarke make up the rest of the shortlist for the award, with a public vote helping to decide the winner.
Votes can be cast on Twitter (@FAWC_) until 5pm on Saturday (2 February).
