Answer
A
Nia my best friend, scored the winning goal.
B
Nia, my best friend scored the winning goal.
C
Nia my best friend scored the winning goal.
D
no change

Explanation

“My best friend” renames Nia and adds extra information, so it is a nonessential phrase. A nonessential phrase is set off by commas on both sides: “Nia, my best friend, scored the winning goal.” Choice A keeps both commas; the other choices omit one or both.
