Bhuta is a midfielder on the Century United GA team. She was named to the US U15 Girls Youth National Team for the recent trip to England. She is the younger sister of Stanford star Mia Bhuta, who also played for the US Youth National Team. 

Lilia is a dominant player in the Girls Academy. She is an elite finisher for a midfielder. She has great composure on the ball and does well with the placement of her shot. She has impressive soccer smarts. There is a lot of resemblance in her game to her older sister, which is among the highest compliments. The younger Bhuta has been among the best players in the country this past season and deserves the attention from scouts at the national level.
