Both teams head coaches started their best players in the game with the hope of getting the maximum three points, but the match eventually ended in favour of Nigeria.

Osinachi Ohale made it 2-1 in the 65th minute and substitute Asisat Oshoala scored another goal for the Super Falcons of Nigeria in the 72nd minute to make it 3-1 before Alanna Kennedy scored the last goal of the game in the 90th minute to end the match 3-2.

Asisat Oshoala was fantastic for the Super Falcons of Nigeria after being introduced to the pitch in the second half of the game, and he was able to mark his excellent performance with a stunning goal.

The Barcelona Women's football club star will now be looking forward to returning to the Super Falcons of Nigeria's first eleven when they play their next game against the Republic of Ireland Women's national team in few days time.
