2023 WWC: Atiku congratulates Super Falcons for victory against Australia

Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, has lauded the Super Falcons of Nigeria for their outstanding performance in securing a 3-2 victory against Australia in a thrilling 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup clash at the Suncorp Stadium.

The match saw Emily van Egmond strike first for Australia in the first half, followed by a brilliant equalizer from Uchenna Kanu for Nigeria just before half-time. The second half witnessed Osinachi Ohale and Asisat Oshoala scoring for Nigeria, while Alanna Kennedy netted a late consolation goal for Australia.

In response to the Falcons’ impressive win, Atiku expressed his admiration in a tweet on his official Twitter handle. He applauded the team’s resilience and unity, emphasizing how their triumph showcases the power of collaboration and determination as a nation.

“Bravo, Super Falcons, @NGSuper_Falcons! Your remarkable victory brilliantly encapsulates what we can do as a people and a country when we work together as one,” Atiku tweeted.

With their confidence boosted by the victory against Australia, the Super Falcons are now gearing up to face the Republic of Ireland in their final group game scheduled for next Monday.
