Player of the Match honors go to the Super Falcons goalkeeper

Chiamaka Nnadozie of the Super Falcons was selected Player of the Match for her outstanding performance against Canada.

Nnadozie, the team captain and a standout performer, led the Nigerian women’s team to a 0-0 tie with Canada on Friday in Melbourne.

She was essential to the team’s goalless draw with Canada in their Group B opening match of the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup.

Nnadozie delivered a tremendous performance, and she capped it off by stopping Christine Sinclair’s 40-year-old penalty kick for Canada.

In the third encounter between the Olympic winners Canada and the Super Falcons at the senior Women’s World Cup, the 22-year-old’s performance earned the Nigerian team a point.

The Falcons haven’t lost to Canada yet after three games. In its three games, the Nigerian squad had defeated Canada and won one, drawing the other two.
