Super Falcons Player Ratings: Oluehi Shines; Ayinde Best Outfielder; High Marks For Defenders; Ajibade Not So Good; Okobi Impresses
Published: December 01, 2018
Nigeria won the 11th Women Africa Cup of Nations after a 4-3 penalty shoot–out defeat of South Africa following a scoreless 120–minute attrition in Accra on Saturday night.
The Super Falcons played a clever, controlled game at the Accra Sports Stadium and certainly looked quite impressive.
Goalkeeper Tochukwu Oluehi was the heroine as she saved one kick in the shootouts.
Allnigeriasoccer.com runs the rules on how the Super Falcons performed in Accra.
The Starters
Tochukwu Oluehi: The Rivers Angels keeper once again rose up to the occasion with another excellent performance. She came to her team's rescue in the shootouts. 9/10
Josephine Chukwunonye: Chukwunonye proved herself at right back. She kept on bumping forward and also defended well when needed. 8/10
Ebere Ngozi: The left back produced a great show for the Super Falcons. 8/10
Onome Ebi: Onome Ebi kept the trio of Linda Motlhalo, Chrestinah Kgatlana and Jermaine Seoposenwe silent. 8/10
Ohale Osinachi: The defender kept things tight alongside Onome at the heart of the defence. 8/10
Halimatu Ayinde: The former Nasarawa Amazons and Delta Queens star was one of the best players in the game. She was very valuable to the Falcons. 8.5/10
Rita Chikwelu: Chikwelu showed a glimpse of her playmaking skills with some killer passes at the middle of the park. 7/10
Ngozi Okobi: The midfielder passed the ball very well and was twice denied by goalkeeper Kaylin Swart. 8/10
Rasheedat Ajibade: Ajibade couldn't assert herself to the game despite getting a starters berth. 6/10
Francisca Ordega: The diminutive forward caused all sorts of problems to Banyana Banyana. She was exciting at both flanks. 8/10
Asisat Oshoala: Not the best game by her usual high standards. She missed a spot kick in the second half. Aside that she was full of pace. 7/10
The Substitutes
Chinwendu Ihezou: The BIIK Kazygurt forward tried her best when she came on. She ran through the channels and gave her team option. 6/10
Chinaza Uchendu: An extra time substitute. She didn't last long to be rated. N/A
