Footballer Stephanie Roche has been invited to meet Barack Obama at the White House on St Patrick's Day.

The Puskas Award nominee tweeted the news yesterday.

Roche announced recently that she is moving to the United States, having signed to Texan side Houston Dash.

The Dublin footballer shot into the limelight when her fabulous goal for Peamount United was shortlisted for FIFA's goal of the year, alongside World Cup goals from James Rodriguez and Robin van Persie.

Have a great day at the White House Stephanie!
