The Super Falcons of Nigeria scored late to win 1-0 and book their place at this year’s Africa Women Cup of Nations in Morocco.
Following the victory in Abuja last Friday, the Super Falcons stunned the Ivorians with an 88th-minute strike at the Stade Robert Champroux in Abidjan to win 3-o on aggregate, thanks to resolute defending and goalkeeper Chiamaka Nnadozie keeping out a spot-kick.
Esther Okoronkwo’s goal took the steam out of the Ivorians who were beginning to force the Super Falcons into committing fouls and getting booked with their search for goals.
