The Banyana Banyana of South Africa defeated the Super Falcons of Nigeria, 2-1 on Monday, July 4, 2022.
The Super Falcons lost their opening group game of the 2022 Africa Women Cup of Nations (WAFCON) as a result of two costly mistakes they made in the second half.
With their reputation in the league, the Super Falcons entered their match against South Africa as the favourites.
At the Stade Moulay Hassan in Rabat, Morocco, the Super Falcons, captained by Onome Ebi, did not get off to a good start against the Banyana Banyana.
For the Super Falcons to advance to the knockout rounds of the competition, they must now perform well against Burundi and Botswana in their other group matches.
