Nigeria’s Super Falcons and South Africa’s Bayana Bayana are set to clash in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games qualifiers, with the second leg scheduled for later on Tuesday in Pretoria, South Africa.
After securing a narrow one-nil victory in the first leg held in Abuja, Nigeria holds a slight advantage, courtesy of Rasheedat Ajibade's crucial goal. However, with the ticket to the Paris Games hanging in the balance, the Super Falcons are fully aware of the task at hand and the need to avoid defeat to secure qualification.
Despite Nigeria's historical dominance in their head-to-head encounters, South Africa remains a formidable opponent, with the match poised to be a feisty encounter. Star forward Asisat Oshoala is expected to lead Nigeria's frontline, with no injury concerns for the team. Kickoff is set for 6:30 pm Nigerian time at the Loftus Versfeld Stadium, Pretoria. S
