Nigeria’s Super Falcons on Thursday evening defeated Botswana 2-0 to enhance their reputation and chances of reaching the quarterfinals of the 2022 CAF Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco reports Prime Business Africa.
Strikers Ifeoma Onumonu and Christy Ucheibe scored for the nine-time African champions either halves.
The Falcons had to gun for a win following their opening Group C defeat to South Africa.
Onumonu latched onto a fantastic pass from Halimat Ayinde in the 21st minute while super substitute Christy Ucheibe scored with her first touch of the ball via a header from a corner kick after she came off the bench.
Botswana resisted the forays of the Falcons subsequently, displaying defensive astuteness to see the goals conceded remain at just twice.
