Nigeria’s Super Falcons Beat Cameroon’s Lionesses to Qualify for Semi-final at Morocco 2022 WAFCON and Clinch 2023 Women’s World Cup Ticket
The Super Falcons of Nigeria won Lionesses of Cameroon in an
epic quarterfinal battle
held on Thursday evening 14 July 2022 inside the Stade Mohammed V in the Morocco’s commercial and economic capital, Casablanca in the ongoing
Morocco 2022 Women’s Africa Cup of
Nations (WAFCON). With this expensive trophy the Falcons have secured a
ticket to the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023 to be hosted by Australia and New Zealand. Coach of the Super
Falcons of Nigeria Randy Waldrum admitted that the Super Falcons had a tough
encounter against the Lionesses.
The Cameroon's
Football Federation President Samuel
Eto'o arrived in Morocco ahead of the Match and urged the
Indomitable Lionesses to end Nigeria's
dominance in the competition, but the Super Falcons claimed the victory as
birthright to the 2023
FIFA Women’s World Cup.
Rasheedat Ajibade
was the heroine of the victory following her sublime header which went into the
net in the 55th minute.
There are
four automatic slots for Africa and teams that reach the semifinal of the WAFCON
tournament will go through. With this winning over Cameroon
in the quarter final, the team will take on the host team, Morocco on
Monday night at the Stade Prince Moulay Abdallah
in Rabat.
Nigeria’s Super Falcons are current champions of Africa after
winning the competition in Ghana
in 2018.
